Cashew prices declined Rs 5 per kg in the national capital today, owing to subdued demand from retailers and stockists.
Comfortable stocks following increased arrivals from producing belts also weighed on the cashew prices.
Cashew kernel (No 180, 210, 240 and 320) prices fell by Rs 5 each to settle at Rs 620-630, Rs 585-590, Rs 520-525 and Rs 435-450 per kg, respectively.
Market analysts said subdued demand against adequate stocks mainly led to decline in cashew kernel prices at the wholesale dry fruit market here.
