Arhar, its dal harden on selective buying

In restricted activity, arhar and its dal prices spurted by up to Rs 100 per quintal at the wholesale pulses market on selective buying activities.

Elsewhere, other pulses moved in a narrow range in limited deals and pegged at last levels.

Traders said selective buying activity against restricted arrivals from producing belts mainly helped arhar and its dal prices to trade higher.
