Cardamom prices were up by 0.85 per cent to Rs 1,353 per kg in futures trade today as speculators built up fresh position.
Besides, tight supplies from producing regions also supported the uptrend.

Similarly, spice for delivery January next year increased by Rs 10.20 or 0.73 per cent to Rs 1,389.90 per kg in 13 lots.
