Kottayam: Spot rubber ruled almost flat on Wednesday. According to sources, the selling from dealers and growers observed during the past few sessions dried up as their stocks hit the bottom lines. There has been some buying interest at lower levels as tapping came to a halt followed by intensified rains all over the State. Sheet rubber closed unchanged at Rs 104 a kg at Kottayam, while the grade moved down to Rs 104.25 from Rs 104.50 a kg at Kochi. The transactions were dull.
