Local cotton markets in Pakistan witnessed drop in price of cotton to one month low at Rs4,800/maund (37.324 kilograms) as textile mill owners avoided bulk buying on Thursday.
The Karachi Cotton Association kept its official rate unchanged for the third consecutive working day at Rs4,500/maund. It reported maximum price at Rs4,780/maund from Rs4,825/maund a day ago.
Traders bought 9,400 bales at Rs4,550 to 4,780/maund as compared to 10,200 bales bought at Rs4,500 to Rs4,825/maund a day ago, the Association added.
According to a broker at Karachi Cotton Exchange, markets should have showed increase in demand in August. However, slowdown in sales of cotton yarn has not allowed yarn manufacturers to take hefty positions.
