Platts to observe India and Singapore publishing schedules for toluene CFR India outright assessment

Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, has decided to publish the outright CFR India toluene assessment in line with the Singapore and India publishing schedules, effective July 23, 2024.

Under the change, the CFR India outright assessment, which is derived off an additional premium to the FOB Korea toluene marker, will not be published when there is a holiday either in Singapore or India.

Platts will still assess the toluene differential between CFR India and FOB Korea according to the India publishing schedule, as announced in a separate note.

The publication of both assessments currently follows the Singapore holiday publishing schedule.

The affected symbols are as follows:

The timestamp of the assessment will remain unchanged at 4:30 pm SGT or 2 pm IST.

The assessment appears in the Asia Petrochemicalscan and Petrochemical Alert (PCA) pages 218, 326, 235, 413, 542 and 900.
