Petcoke & Lime Market Updates
Petroleum coke fires our lime kilns, so buyers in Jodhpur and across Rajasthan ask us where it stands. This page gives dated petcoke price references with their source and basis — and, separately, Deshwali Minerals' own quicklime and hydrated lime quotation rates.

Petcoke price reference
The one refinery price series we could verify with a date, a basis and a source. It is a reference point for the fuel market — not what petcoke costs delivered in Jodhpur.

Read this before using the figure
- It is not a delivered Jodhpur rate. Vadinar is on the Gujarat coast. What petcoke costs at a kiln in Jodhpur district also carries GST and cess, road or rail freight, handling and the supplier’s own terms.
- It is one refiner. We could not find publicly posted petcoke prices for other Indian refineries, so none are shown. Prices differ by supplier and by grade.
- It is as reported. The figures come from the trade sources linked on this page, not from a refinery circular issued to us.
- We do not sell petcoke. Deshwali Minerals manufactures lime. For a petcoke price, ask your fuel supplier.

Imported petcoke at Indian ports
India also imports petcoke, and that market influences domestic refinery prices. These are published assessments in US dollars for cargoes delivered to an Indian port — a different product basis from the rupee refinery price above, and from two different price reporters.
$185per tonne
6.5% sulphur, CFR east coast India (BigMint)
$135.50per tonne
6.5% sulphur, CFR India (Argus assessment)
$160per tonne
6.5% sulphur, CFR India (Argus assessment)
$129per tonne
6.5% sulphur, CFR India (Argus assessment)
CFR means cost and freight to the port: it excludes import duty, port charges and inland freight. None of these figures is a price in Jodhpur.
Indian refineries that sell petcoke
Each refinery listed here is one whose operator says, on its own website, that it produces or sells petcoke. The links go to each refiner's own page for enquiries.
Checked against each source on . Refining capacity is the refinery’s crude capacity in million tonnes a year (PPAC, 1 April 2026), not its petcoke output, which refiners do not publish refinery by refinery. IndianOil lists fuel-grade petcoke for cement, lime kilns and boilers, and calcinable petcoke (RPC) for carbon uses such as electrodes and anodes. “Not stated” means the refiner’s page does not give the grade. This list is for information: enquiries go to the refiner, not to Deshwali Minerals.
Petcoke is one factor in a lime price, not the whole of it
Fuel matters to a lime kiln, so a sustained move in petcoke does reach lime rates. But a lime quotation does not rise or fall rupee-for-rupee with petcoke — these all sit in the price as well.
Fuel
Our kilns are fired with petroleum coke. Fuel is a real part of the cost of burning limestone into lime, which is why the petcoke market is worth watching — but it is one input.
How the lime is madeGrade and purity
A higher available-lime grade needs selected stone and tighter burning and sorting. Two quotations for “quick lime” can differ simply because the grade does.
Quality and testingProduction costs
Limestone, power, labour, kiln upkeep, hydration and grinding all sit in the price. They move on their own timetable, not on petcoke’s.
Packaging
Loose bulk, small bags and jumbo bags cost different amounts to fill and load. The packing you ask for is priced on the quotation.
Packaging optionsQuantity
Rates are published in quantity bands. A full truck or a standing monthly requirement is priced differently from a small one-off load.
Rates by quantityFreight
Our rates are ex-works Borunda. Transport to your site depends on distance, vehicle and route, and is quoted separately for your destination.
Transport and delivery
Our quicklime and hydrated lime quotation rates
