Bajra softens on reduced offtake

In restricted activity, bajra prices eased by Rs 15 per quintal at the wholesale grains market today due to reduced offtake by consuming industries against adequate stocks position.
However, other grains moved in a narrow range in scattered deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said besides reduced offtake by consuming industries, against adequate stocks position in the market mainly led to the decline in bajra prices.
In the national capital, bajra moved down by Rs 15 to Rs 1,155-1,160 per quintal.
