Arhar, its dal remain weak on muted demand

In restricted activity, arhar and its dal prices drifted further lower by Rs 300 per quintal at the wholesale pulses market today following considerable fall in demand from retailers coupled with sufficient stocks position.
However, other pulses moved in a narrow range on little doing and settled around previous levels.
Traders said fall in demand from retailers at prevailing levels against ample stocks position pulled down arhar and its dal prices.
