Black pepper and turmeric prices fell by Rs 100 per quintal in the national capital today due to subdued demand from retailers and stockists at existing higher prices.
Black pepper fell by Rs 100 to settle at Rs 23,600-23,800 per quintal, while turmeric prices traded lower at Rs 13,400-16,700 against the previous mark of Rs 13,500-16,800 per quintal.
Market analysts said subdued demand from retailers and stockists at existing higher levels mainly pulled down the pepper and turmeric prices on the wholesale kirana market here.
