In limited deals, pistachio prices declined up to Rs 25 per kg on the wholesale dry fruits market today, owing to slackened demand against adequate stocks. 

Elsewhere, other dry fruits continued to trade in a narrow range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.  

Traders said subdued demand against sufficient stocks led to decline in pistachio prices.

In the national capital, pistachio Irani fell by Rs 25 to Rs 775-800, while Hairati shed Rs 5 at Rs 1,020-1,045 per kg.
