Aluminium futures fall on low demand

New Delhi, Dec 6 (PTI) Aluminium prices on Friday slipped Rs 2.40 to Rs 243.70 per kilogram in the futures market as participants trimmed their positions on a weak trend in the spot market.

On the Multi Commodity Exchange, aluminium for delivery in December fell Rs 2.40 or 0.98 per cent to Rs 243.70 per kg in 3,385 lots.
