Tin Price — 10-Day Trend
All prices in ₹ per gram · daily rate, updated once per day
Where Tin Actually Comes From
Tin is trading at ₹4.55 per gram today, September 17, 2026, but that number's origin starts in mines and smelters spread across a relatively short list of countries. Ask where tin comes from and the honest answer is China and Indonesia first, with Myanmar and Peru filling out the rest of what counts as meaningful global supply.
That concentration is worth understanding on its own terms, because it shapes how sensitive tin's price can be to news out of any single one of those four countries.
Tin Price by Weight

China and Indonesia Lead the Field
China and Indonesia stand out as the two most significant tin-producing countries in the world today. Both have substantial tin ore reserves, and both built long-standing mining and processing industries around those reserves well before tin's modern electronics-driven demand story took shape. Their combined output forms the backbone of what reaches global markets each year.
Myanmar and Peru round out the major producers
Myanmar has grown into a genuine and meaningful tin-mining country, contributing ore that flows into the broader international supply chain. Peru, on the other side of the world, has its own established tin-mining industry with a long track record of supplying international buyers. Neither matches the scale of China or Indonesia, but together they represent a real and necessary share of global supply outside the two largest producers.

Why This Short List of Countries Matters
When most of the world's supply of anything comes from four countries rather than forty, the market's relationship with each of those countries' output and policy becomes unusually important. A mining disruption, an export change, or a processing bottleneck in China, Indonesia, Myanmar or Peru carries more weight for the global tin price than an equivalent event would for a metal whose production is spread evenly across a much longer list of producers.
India, for context, is not a significant tin-mining country and relies substantially on imports to supply its electronics manufacturing, tin-plating and alloy industries — which is exactly why the benchmark tracked on this page runs through the international LME tin price and the USD/INR exchange rate, rather than any domestic mined reference. Wherever tin is ultimately used — in the solder joint on a circuit board, the plating on a food can, or a bronze fitting — the ore it started as very likely came from one of these four countries.
Where Tin Comes From — FAQs
China and Indonesia are the two most significant tin-producing countries in the world today, each with a long-established mining and smelting industry. Myanmar and Peru are also real, meaningful producers that round out the list of countries supplying most of the world's tin.
Both countries have substantial tin ore reserves and long-standing mining and processing industries built around them. That combination of resource base and established infrastructure is why they account for such a significant share of the tin reaching global markets each year.
Yes. Myanmar has become a genuine and meaningful contributor to global tin supply, mining tin ore that feeds into the broader international market alongside output from China and Indonesia.
Peru is a real and established tin-producing country, with a mining industry that has supplied international markets for a long time. It sits alongside China, Indonesia and Myanmar as one of the handful of countries that account for most of the world's tin output.
Yes, directly. Because tin supply is concentrated in a relatively short list of countries — China, Indonesia, Myanmar and Peru chief among them — a policy shift, an export change, or a disruption in any one of them can move the international tin benchmark, and therefore the India-side rate of ₹4.55 per gram shown here, more than an equivalent event would for a metal with a broader, more evenly spread supply base.
