India is set to import a record 1.35 million metric tonnes of diammonium phosphate (DAP) in a single tender as disruptions in fertiliser supplies linked to the Iran conflict push New Delhi to secure larger inventories. The purchases, equivalent to nearly a quarter of India's annual DAP imports, are expected to tighten global supplies further and keep international prices firm amid rising energy and freight costs.

Indian Potash Ltd (IPL) has agreed to buy 765,000 tonnes of DAP at $930 per tonne on a cost-and-freight basis for delivery to India's west coast, along with another 581,500 tonnes at $935 per tonne for the east coast, according to government sources. IPL had initially floated a tender in April for 1.2 million tonnes but eventually raised procurement volumes after multiple suppliers matched the lowest offer.
