Pistachio prices drifted up to Rs 10 per kg in the national capital today largely due to sluggish demand from retailers and stockists at existing higher levels.
Comfortable stocks on increased arrivals from overseas markets, also put pressure on pistachio prices.
Pistachio (hairati and peshawari) fell up to Rs 10 to settle at Rs 1,040-1,195 and Rs 1,240-1,390 per kg, respectively.
Traders said subdued demand from retailers and stockists, mainly pulled down pistachio prices on the wholesale dry fruit market here.
