Supported by increased offtake by retailers to meet rising demand, prices of masoor and its dal spurted by Rs 200 per quintal at the wholesale pulses market today.
Besides, lower arrivals from producing regions also influenced the prices.
However, moong traded lower on sluggish demand at existing levels.
Marketmen said besides increased offtake on the back of rising demand from retailers, restricted arrivals from producing regions led to the rise in masoor and its dal prices.
In the national capital, masoor small and bold rose by Rs 200 each to Rs 5,400-5,600 and Rs 5,400-5,700, while its dal local and best quality traded higher by the same margin to Rs 6,200-6,300 and Rs 6,300-6,400 per quintal, respectively.
Malka local and best quality followed suit and enquired higher by Rs 100 each to Rs 5,700-6,000 and Rs 5,900-6,000 per quintal, respectively.
