India's urea import tender drew Aditya Birla Global Trading as lowest bidder at about $462 per tonne CFR, with the government likely to buy 2 million tonnes in a $462–470 range. The highest bid was $490, and China was included as a sourcing country after relaxing its export ban.
A large Indian purchase supports global urea demand, but the lower-than-expected price signals softer international pricing. Buyers are watching whether Chinese supply actually reaches India.
After 81 past bearish trade events, Urea moved a median -1.0% over 5 sessions (28% higher; middle half -7.2% to +0.4%), and -5.5% over 20.
