Wheat edges up on scattered flour mills' buying

In restricted activity, wheat prices edged up by Rs 5 per quintal at the wholesale grains market today on mild demand from flour mills.
However, other grains held steady in limited deals.
Traders said scattered demand from flour mills mainly led to the rise in wheat prices.
In the national capital, wheat dara (for mills) inched up by Rs 5 to Rs 1,760-1,765 per quintal. Atta chakki delivery followed suit and traded higher by a similar margin to Rs 1,765-1,770 per 90 kg.
