Cardamom small and cloves prices gained Rs 10 per kg in the national capital today on fresh demand from stockists and retailers.

However, other spices moved in a tight range on alternate bouts of trading and settled around previous levels.  

Market analysts said fresh demand from stockists and retailers mainly helped cardamom small and cloves prices to trade marginally higher.

In the national capital, cardamom small chitridar, cardamom colour robin and cardamom bold varieties gained Rs 10 each to Rs 600-630, Rs 610-640 and Rs 630-660 per kg, respectively.
