Chilli teja prices were up 1.99 per cent to Rs 8,400 per quintal in futures trading today as participants created speculative positions, triggered by tight supplies from producing belts.
Besides, rising demand in the spot market supported the upside.
At the National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange, chilli teja for delivery this month climbed Rs 164, or 1.99 per cent, to Rs 8,400 per quintal with an open interest of just five lots.
