Rice basmati fell by Rs 100 per quintal in an otherwise steady wholesale grains market owing to sluggish demand at prevailing levels.
Traders said slackness in demand against sufficient stocks mainly led to fall in wholesale rice basmati prices.
In the national capital, rice basmati common and Pusa-1121 varieties declined by Rs 100 each to Rs 5,300-5,400 and Rs 4,200-5,200 per quintal, respectively.
