Pistachio prices rose by Rs 5 per kg in the national capital today largely on the back of buying support from retailers and stockists due to domestic demand.
Restricted supplies from overseas markets also supported the upside in prices. Pistachio hairati and peshwari rose by Rs 5 to settle at Rs 1,000-1,050 and Rs 1,225-1,275 per kg, respectively.
Market analysts said increased demand from retailers and stockists against fall in supplies from overseas markets pushed up pistachio prices in the wholesale dry fruit market.
