LONDON Feb28 (Reuters) - Tata Steel (TISC.BO: Quote) said it was increasing prices of wire rod produced in the United Kingdom for April deliveries to account for rising raw materials costs and improved demand.

Prices will rise by a minimum of 125 pounds ($201.50) per tonne, with some grades increasing by as much as 150 pounds per tonne, it said.(Reporting by Melanie Burton; editing by Jane Baird,sourced:Reuters)
