Pistachio prices drifted by Rs 10 per kg in the national capital today, largely due to sluggish demand from retailers and stockists at existing higher levels.
Adequate stock positions on increased arrivals from overseas markets, also put pressure on pistachio prices.
Pistachio (hairati and peshawari) eased by Rs 10 each, to conclude at Rs 1,040-1,165 and Rs 1,240-1,390 per kg, respectively.
Traders said subdued demand from retailers and stockists against fresh arrivals, mainly pulled down pistachio prices on the wholesale dry fruit market here.
