An Indian firm made the lowest offer of $313.65 a tonne in an international tender for 50,000 tonnes of wheat by Bangladesh's state grains buyer, an agency official said on Monday. Amira Pure Foods made the lowest offer among three bidders participating in the tender, the eleventh issued in the current fiscal year that ends in June.
The price included cost, freight, insurance and other expenses. Amira's offer is 1.7 percent lower than the lowest offer of $319 a tonne from Korea's J-One Co Ltd in a tender late last month.
