Indian importers IPL, Kribhco and Coromandel signed a five-year offtake agreement with Saudi Arabia for 3.1 million tonnes per year of phosphates, mostly DAP. The cargoes will be priced on a spot basis, and the deal is tied to Ma'aden, Saudi Arabia's largest phosphates producer.
Secured volumes ease India's dependence on tight Chinese supply, which could moderate future DAP price spikes. Because pricing stays spot-linked, the immediate price impact is modest.

A five-year 3.1 Mt/yr Saudi offtake by Indian importers, priced on spot, signals strong import demand and supply securing, which is bullish for spot DAP.
