Almond prices rose by Rs 100 per 40 kg in an otherwise steady wholesale dry fruits market today on scattered demand from retailers.
However, other dry fruits continued to trade in a tight range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said some demand from retailers mainly attributed the rise in almond prices.
