Wheat dara prices rose by Rs 5 per quintal on the wholesale grains market today, on fresh buying by flour mills to meet the ongoing marriage season demand.
Rice basmati declined on stockists selling. Traders said fresh buying by flour mills to meet the marriage season demand led to the rise in wheat dara prices.
Stockists selling in view of sluggish demand against adequate stocks helped rice basmati prices to decline, they added.
