About Us
Last Updated: 26 September 2026

ScrapRateToday is India's Daily Scrap Rate Information Portal. We publish daily scrap metal rates for Indian cities so that sellers, dealers, and buyers all work from the same transparent price information.
Why did we start ScrapRateToday?
The Indian scrap market runs largely on word of mouth. A seller in one city often has no way to know what the same metal sells for in another city. Dealers quote different prices to different people on the same day. We started ScrapRateToday to fix this information gap with one simple idea: publish daily, city-wise scrap rates that anyone can check for free.
What does ScrapRateToday offer?
We publish daily rates for eight scrap metals — copper, aluminium, brass, iron, steel, stainless steel, battery, and lead — across fifteen Indian cities. Each metal page explains grades and uses. Each city page shows local rates and market context. We also provide:
- Daily rate tables — metal-wise and city-wise prices in rupees per kilogram.
- Rate history — past price movement to help you time your sales.
- Scrap value calculator — estimate what your scrap lot is worth at today's rate.
- News and guides — plain-language articles on the scrap metal market.
Who is ScrapRateToday for?
Our readers include household sellers with old utensils and wires, kabadiwalas and small dealers, fabrication workshops, and anyone who wants to understand scrap metal pricing. You do not need any industry background — our content is written in simple language.
Our promise
We keep our rates updated every day, explain our rate methodology openly, and never charge readers for price information. When we make a mistake, we correct it. Transparency is the whole point of this portal.
