Bajra prices firmed up by Rs 30 per quintal in lacklustre trade at the wholesale grain market today due to increased demand by consuming industries.
However, other grains after moving in a narrow range in limited deals settled around previous levels.
Traders said pick-up in demand from consuming industries against restricted supplies from producing regions mainly kept bajra prices higher.
In the national capital, bajra rose Rs 30 to Rs 1,330-1,335 per quintal.
