Bajra prices fell by Rs 20 per quintal in an otherwise steady wholesale grains market today due to reduced offtake against adequate supplies.
However, other grains moved in a narrow range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said besides reduced offtake by consuming industries, adequate stocks availability mainly kept pressure on bajra prices.
In the national capital, bajra declined by Rs 20 to Rs 1,300-1,305 per quintal.
