Wheat eases on increased supply

Wheat prices fell by Rs 10 per quintal at the wholesale grains market today on increased supplies from producing belts against reduced offtake by flour mills.
Traders said increased supplies in the wake of reduced offtake by flour mills mainly kept pressure on wheat prices.
