    THE TREND

    roduction of natural rubber (NR) in India fell 10.2


    per cent on year to 53,000 tonnes during May
    2014 due to unusually severe drought felt in the
    countrys traditional rubber-growing region. The total
    quantity produced during April and May 2014 was down
    7.1 per cent from the same period a year ago. However,
    during June 2014, the country is estimated to have
    produced 63,000 tonnes, markedly up from the quantity
    of 38,000 tonnes produced during the same month a
    year ago.
    Consumption of NR rose 2.8 per cent to 83,800 tonnes
    during May 2014 from 81,500 tonnes consumed a month
    ago (April 2014). The total quantity consumed during the first
    two months (April and May 2014) of the current fiscal was
    up 0.6 per cent at 165,300 tonnes from 164,305 tonnes
    consumed during the same period a year ago. While the
    consumption fell 0.5 per cent in the dominant auto-tyre
    manufacturing sector, it rose 2.8 per cent in the general
    rubber goods sector during April-May 2014. According to
    preliminary estimate, the country has consumed 86,000
    tonnes of NR during June 2014.India imported 34,702
    tonnes of NR during May 2014 compared to 20,948
    tonnes imported during May last year as per the NOC

    issued by the Rubber Board for customs clearance. The


    volume imported during the first two months of the current
    fiscal was 63,842 tonnes as against 35,344 tonnes
    shipped-in during the same period a year ago. Exports
    of NR fell during May 2014 to 31 tonnes from 185 tonnes
    exported during May last year. The total volume exported
    during April and May this year was 59 tonnes compared to
    the corresponding quantity of 1,723 tonnes in the previous
    year. With the above trends in production, consumption,
    import and export, the closing stock estimated for
    May 2014 is estimated at 205,000 tonnes.
    As regards synthetic rubber (SR), the production fell
    during May 2014 to 10,678 tonnes from 13,690 tonnes
    produced a month ago. The first two months of the
    current fiscal showed a 40.1 per cent rise in the countrys
    production of SR to 24,368 tonnes from 17,390 tonnes
    it produced during the same period in the previous year.
    Consumption of SR rose during May this year to 43,870
    tonnes from 40,705 tonnes consumed a month ago. The
    total quantity of SR, which the country consumed during
    April and May 2014, was up 5.6 per cent at 84,575 tonnes
    compared to 80,100 tonnes consumed during the same
    period a year ago.
