Caustic soda prices rose Rs 50 per 50 kg in the national capital today mostly supported by a fall in supplies from producing belts amid a firm demand from consuming industries.
Caustic soda flake rose Rs 50 to Rs 1,750-1,850 per 50 kg.
Marketmen said that apart from good demand from detergent manufacturers, tight supplies from producing belts pushed up caustic soda prices at the wholesale chemical market here.
