Pistachio prices rose by Rs 10 per kg in the national capital today on the back of fresh buying support from retailers and stockists due to domestic demand.

Restricted supplies from overseas markets also supported the upside in prices.

Pistachio hairati and peshwari rose by Rs 10 each to conclude at Rs 970-1,015 and Rs 1,215-1,245 per kg, respectively. 

Market analysts said increased demand from retailers and stockists against fall in supplies from overseas markets mainly pushed up pistachio prices in the wholesale dry fruit market here.
