Pistachio prices declined by Rs 5 per kg in the national capital today, following sluggish demand from retailers and stockists.
Adequate stocks position on increased arrivals from overseas markets also put pressure on pistachio prices. Pistachio hairati and peshawari fell by Rs 5 to settle at Rs 870-895 and Rs 1,075-1,125 per kg, respectively.
Traders said subdued demand from retailers and stockists against adequate stocks mainly pulled down pistachio prices on the wholesale dry fruit market here.
