Pistachio prices drifted by Rs 10 per kg in the national capital today largely on the back of sluggish demand from retailers and stockists.
Adequate stocks position following increased arrivals from the overseas markets also put pressure on pistachio prices.
Pistachio (hairati and peshawari) eased by Rs 10 to settle at Rs 1,180-1,230 and Rs 1,330-1,355 per kg, respectively.
Traders said sluggish demand from retailers and stockists against fresh arrivals, mainly pulled down pistachio prices on the wholesale dry fruit market here.
