Copper futures on Monday fell Rs2.40 to Rs728.50 per kilogram as participants cut their positions amid a muted demand in the domestic market. On the Multi Commodity Exchange, copper contracts for March delivery eased Rs2.40 or 0.33 per cent to Rs728.50 per kg in a business turnover of 3,964 lots. Analysts said trimming of positions by speculators amid a muted demand in the spot market mainly dragged down copper prices in the futures trade.
