Increased arrivals from producing belts against low demand from bulk consumers also put pressure on the cashew prices.
Cashew kernel (No 180, 210, 240 and 230) prices fell Rs 5 to settle at Rs 795-845, Rs 715-735, Rs 665-675 and Rs 610-625 per kg, respectively.
Marketmen said slackened demand from retailers and stockists against increased arrivals, weighed on cashew prices.
Following are today's quotations (per 40 kgs):
Almond (California) Rs 22,700, Almond (Gurbandi-new) Rs 10,000-10,400; Almond (Girdhi) Rs 6,900-7,100; Abjosh Afghani Rs 15,000-20,000.
