Lead prices slipped by 0.09% to Rs 111.15 per kg in futures trading today due to sluggish demand from battery-makers in the spot market amid a weak global trend.
At the Multi Commodity exchange, lead for delivery in March fell by 10 paise, or 0.09%, to Rs 111.15 per kg in a business turnover of 279 lots.
