In restricted activity, wheat dara prices traded marginally lower by Rs 5 per quintal in the wholesale grains market today on increased supply against reduced offtake from flour mills.
Elsewhere, other grains, including rice moved in a narrow range on alternate bouts of trading and settled around initial levels. Marketmen said easy availability of stocks in the market amid reduced offtake from mills helped wheat dara prices to trade lower at the wholesale market.
Wheat dara (for mills) shed Rs 5 to Rs 1,230-1,235 per quintal, while atta chakki delivery traded lower by the same margin at Rs 1,235-1,240 per 90 kg.
