Prices of moth and arhar rose up to Rs 100 per quintal on the wholesale pulses market today on increased buying by stockists supported by rising demand against restricted arrivals from producing regions.
Traders said increased buying by stockists on the back of rising demand against limited arrivals from producing regions mainly led to rise in moth and arhar prices.
