India plans to import 1.35 million tonnes of diammonium phosphate (DAP) in response to supply disruptions from the Iran conflict. This volume represents 25% of India's annual DAP imports, likely tightening global supplies and supporting prices, which are already elevated due to rising energy costs.

Key Points:

• Indian Potash Ltd (IPL) will buy 7,65,000 tonnes at $930 per ton CFR for the west coast.

• Another 581,500 tonnes will be purchased at $935 per ton CFR for the east coast.

These purchases may impact fertilizer pricing dynamics in the market.
