China's Shandong raises fuel oil import tax rebates for some refineries, sources say
SINGAPORE, July 3 (Reuters) - The provincial government of Shandong, China's refining hub, has increased fuel oil import tax rebates for six independent refineries to improve their profitability as they struggle with low margins and fuel demand, industry sources said this week. The Shandong provincial tax bureau increased the consumption tax rebates that the independent refiners, also known as teapots, will receive for the sale of gasoline and diesel refined from imported fuel oil by 25 percentage points to between 75% and 95%, three sources with direct knowledge of the matter said this week. The change applies to Chambroad Petrochemicals, Hongrun Petrochemical, Lihuayi Group, Xinyue Group, Shandong Jincheng Petrochemical Group and Xintai Petrochemical, the sources said. The refiners were notified about two weeks ago, said one of the sources. The Shandong Provincial Tax Service, the national State Taxation Administration and the companies did not respond to Reuters' requests for comment. The teapots often choose to process straight-run fuel oil or tar-like heavy residue called bitumen blend into transportation fuels when crude prices become too expensive and they are under crude oil import quotas that can limit their purchases. China enacted higher import tariffs on fuel oil at the start of 2025 and at the end of last year reduced the tax rebates on fuel oil shipments. That led to fuel oil imports declining to their lowest ever for the January-May period, according to customs data. FGE's Associate Director of the East of Suez Oil Service Mia Geng said in a June 27 note the independent refiners had been suffering from low margins and shutdowns as a result of the rules and the provincial government likely also wanted the refineries to run more to boost industrial output and economic activity. Geng expects the tax changes should increase high-sulphur fuel oil demand and raise the refineries' run rates. However, the changes are unlikely to spur fuel oil demand in the short-term since crude oil is currently cheaper, a trading source and one of the sources with direct knowledge of the change said. The refiners in Shandong are China's main buyers of cheap sanctioned oil from Russia and Iran.

Rupee supported by hopes of India-US trade deal, weak US jobs data
MUMBAI, July 3 (Reuters) - The Indian rupee is likely to open marginally higher on Thursday, supported by an uptick in most Asian currencies on optimism over signing trade deals with the United States before the tariff deadline. The 1-month non-deliverable forward indicated an open between 85.60 and 85.64 versus 85.7025 in the previous session. U.S. President Donald Trump announced an agreement with Vietnam that cuts U.S. tariffs on many Vietnamese goods to 20% from his previously announced 46%. The deal has sparked hopes that other countries, including India, will be able to negotiate trade deals with Washington before July 9 when Trump's 90-day pause on so-called reciprocal tariffs is set to expire. Most Asian currencies traded higher, while equities were mixed. The U.S. and India are pushing for a trade pact after Trump's deal with Vietnam. Trump threatened a 26% duty on Indian goods under his reciprocal tariff plan, with the rate temporarily lowered to 10% to allow time for negotiations. "If the India-U.S. deal is done, it will be more of a relief for the rupee and nothing beyond that," a currency trader at a bank said. "I don't expect a major move if the deal materialises. The bigger reaction will come if it doesn't." Meanwhile, in a boost for Asian currencies and risk assets, weaker-than-expected U.S. private payrolls data strengthened the case for a Federal Reserve rate cut in the coming months —possibly as early as this month. U.S. private payrolls unexpectedly fell in June, the ADP National Employment Report showed on Wednesday. "There is an increased near-term focus on the labour market.. the question is whether this weakness will be corroborated by tomorrow's labour market report, or if the data will indicate resilience," ANZ Bank said in a note. The U.S. non-farm payrolls data for June is due Friday. KEY INDICATORS: ** One-month non-deliverable rupee forward at 85.72; onshore one-month forward premium at 10 paise ** Dollar index marginally up at 96.77 ** Brent crude futures down 0.9% at $68.5 per barrel ** Ten-year U.S. note yield at 4.26% ** As per NSDL data, foreign investors bought a net $129.1 million worth of Indian shares on July 1 ** NSDL data shows foreign investors sold a net $37.4 million worth of Indian bonds on July 1
