Prices of select grains moved up by up to Rs 10 per quintal on the wholesale grains market today, mostly supported by increased offtake by stockists to meet rising demand from consuming industries.
Traders said increased buying by stockists against restricted supplies helped bajra and barley to trade higher.
In the national capital, bajra and barley moved up by Rs 5 and Rs 10 to Rs 1,300-1,305 and Rs 1,330-1,340 per quintal respectively.
