Traders said sentiments turned bearish after zinc retreated from the highest level in ten months and most industrial metals declined in global markets as the dollar strengthened ahead of a monthly report on the US employment.
Meanwhile, zinc for delivery in three-months fell 0.8 per cent to USD 1,966 a metric tonne on the London Metal Exchange.
In the national capital, zinc ingots declined by Rs 2 to Rs 94-100 per kg.
Following are today's metal rates (in Rs per kg):
Lead ingots Rs 72, lead imported Rs 78, aluminium ingots Rs 155, aluminium sheet cutting Rs 151, aluminium wire scrap Rs 151 and aluminium utensils scrap Rs 149.
