Pistachio prices eased by Rs 5 per kg at the wholesale dry fruit market in the national capital today largely due to subdued demand from retailers and stockists.
Adequate stocks position following increased arrivals from producing regions also put pressure on pistachio prices.
Pistachio (hairati and peshawari) fell by Rs 5 each to settle at Rs 1,505-1,535 and Rs 1,705-1,725 per kg, respectively.
Traders said, fall in demand from retailers and stockists against increased arrivals led to the fall in pistachio prices.
