Menthol prices rose by Rs 5 per kg in the national capital today on fresh buying support from pharma and consuming units, amid tight stocks.
Restricted supplies from producing belts also influenced the prices.
Menthol bold crystal, menthol flake and mentha oil prices increased by Rs 5 each to Rs 1,275, Rs 1,230 and Rs 1,175 per kg, respectively.
Market analysts said fresh buying support from pharma and other consuming industries against restricted arrivals from producing belts mainly pushed up menthol prices on the wholesale chemical market here.
