Amid rising domestic demand and restricted arrivals from producing regions, cardamom prices rose 1.08% to Rs 940 per kg in futures trading today as speculators enlarged their positions.
At the Multi Commodity Exchange, cardamom for delivery in April rose by Rs 10, or 1.08%, to Rs 940 per kg in a business turnover of 2 lots.
In a similar fashion, the spice for delivery in May moved up by Rs 3.30, or 0.36%, to Rs 920.70 per kg in 193 lots.
