Sodium chlorate is extensively utilized as a bleaching agent in the paper & pulp industry. Moreover, its utilization in the chemical industry as a low-cost oxidizing agent is common. Price fluctuations in recent times have been observed in the 2nd quarter of FY2020, owing to reduced activities across industries due to the COVID-19 pandemic. All in all, the market is set to show positive signs of growth by the end of the second quarter of FY2020.
