Pistachio prices declined by Rs 5 per kg in the national capital today owing to sluggish demand from retailers and stockists.
Adequate stocks following increased arrivals from overseas markets also put pressure on pistachio prices.
Pistachio hairati and peshawari shed Rs 5 each to settle at Rs 995-1,045 and Rs 1,245-1,295 per kg, respectively.
Traders said fall in demand from retailers and stockists mainly weighed on the pistachio prices.
