At the Multi Commodity Exchange, zinc for delivery in May contracts was trading lower by 40, or 0.32 per cent, to Rs 126.10 per kg, with a business turnover of 880 lots.
The metal for delivery in June fell 35 paise, or 0.28 per cent, to Rs 126.80 per kg in a turnover of 27 lots.
Traders said the fall in zinc prices in futures trade was mostly in tandem with a weak trend in the base metals pack at the London Metal Exchange (LME) after a disappointing Chinese economic data, raising demand concerns.
