Arhar and its dal prices were up by Rs 50 per quintal at the wholesale pulses market today on rising demand from retailers amid lower arrivals from producing belts.
However, other pulses moved in a tight range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.
Marketmen said rising demand from retailers amid restricted arrivals from producing regions mainly kept arhar and its dal prices up.
In the national capital, arhar and its dal dara variety gained Rs 50 each to Rs 4,800-5,000 and Rs 6,100-6,400 per quintal, respectively.
