Chilli and turmeric prices fell by up to Rs 300 per quintal in the national capital today due to subdued demand from retailers and stockists amid adequate stocks.

Red chilli and turmeric prices shed up to Rs 300 to settle at Rs 9,200-13,200 and at Rs 10,300-15,300 per quintal, respectively.

Market analysts said subdued demand from retailers and stockists amid adequate stocks mainly pulled down the chilli and turmeric prices in the wholesale kirana market here.
