Select grains prices rose up to Rs 50 per quintal on the wholesale grains market today on fresh buying by stockists on pick up in demand.
However, rice basmati common declined on reduced offtake. Traders said fresh buying by stockists on pick up in demand amid slow down in arrivals mainly pushed up select wholesale grains.
Adequate stocks against reduced offtake by retailers and stockists helped rice basmati common prices to decline.
