HRC prices quarterly 8–12% swing kar rahe hain. Annual contracts ab almost meaningless lagte hain. Index-linked pricing clauses kisi ke kaam aa rahe hain auto supply chain mein?

Same story in forging. Annual contracts without index are basically broken now.

Hedging through trader inventory helped during the last spike, but carrying cost is real.

HRC ke liye CRU / Platts reference use kar rahe ho? Alignment pe pehle agree kar lo.

We blend 70% index + 30% fixed for 12 months. Both sides can live with it.

Index-linked pricing with quarterly resets is standard in our steel contracts now.
