Red chilli and jeera prices fell by Rs 100 per quintal in the national capital today owing to subdued demand from retailers and stockists amid adequate stocks.
Low demand and higher supplies in the domestic market also put pressure on the prices. Red chilli prices fell by Rs 100 to settle at Rs 9,500-13,300 per quintal.
Jeera common and jeera best quality also declined by Rs 100 each to conclude at Rs 14,900-15,100 and Rs 17,000-17,100 per quintal, respectively.
Market analysts said subdued demand from retailers and stockists amid sufficient stocks mainly pulled down the chilli and jeera prices in the wholesale kirana market here.
