At the National Commodity and Derivative Exchange, coriander for delivery in May rose by Rs 97, or 1.05 per cent to Rs 9,310 per quintal with an open interest of 33,030 lots.
Similarly, the spice for delivery in June edged up by Rs 80, or 0.85 per cent, to Rs 9,541 per quintal in 32,830 lots.
Analysts said fresh positions built up by speculators after pick-up in spot market demand against restricted arrivals from producing belts mainly led to rise in coriander prices at futures trade.
