Wheat prices inched up by Rs 5 per quintal at the wholesale grains market today due to scattered buying by flour mills.
However, other grains, including rice basmati, held steady in limited deals.
Traders said some buying by flour mills to meet rising demand led to rise in wheat prices.
In the national capital, wheat dara (for mills) rose by Rs 5 to Rs 1,490-1,495 per quintal. Atta chakki delivery followed suit and traded higher by the same margin to Rs 1,505-1,510 per 90 kg.
