Copra edible, copra Alapuzha and copra Kozhikode prices declined at the spices market here today due to subdued demand from retailers and millers amidst adequate stocks availability.
Elsewhere, black pepper, ginger bleached and unbleached also dipped owing to stockists selling coupled with reduced offtake from overseas buyers.
Copra edible Mumbai, copra office Alapuzha and copra office Kozhikode went down by Rs 100 per quintal each to Rs 7,700, Rs 6,700 and Rs 6,600 from last Saturday's closing level of Rs 7,800, Rs 6,800 and Rs 6,700.
