Maize prices rose by Rs 25 per quintal in an otherwise steady wholesale grains market today on increased demand.
Elsewhere, other commodities moved in a narrow range in restricted buying activity and settled around previous levels.
Traders said increased demand against tight supply mainly helped maize prices to move up.
