Market players said raising of bets by speculators, driven by robust demand in spot market amid thin arrivals from producing belts, mainly attributed the rise in coriander prices at futures trade.
India is the largest producer as well as consumer of coriander.
In futures trading at the National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange, coriander for delivery in June climbed Rs 77, or 1.42 per cent, to Rs 5,510 per quintal, with an open interest of 54,270 lots.
