NEW DELHI, Dec 25: In limited deals, prices of pistachio declined by Rs 5 per kg in the national capital today largely on the back of sluggish demand from retailers and stockists.
Adequate stocks position following increased arrivals from overseas markets also put pressure on pistachio prices.
Pistachio (hairati and peshawari) eased by Rs 5 to settle at Rs 1,350-1,450 and Rs 1,500-1,600 per kg, respectively.
Traders said sluggish demand from retailers and stockists against fresh arrivals, mainly led to a fall in pistachio prices on the wholesale dry fruit market here.
The following are today’s quotations (per 40 kg):
Almond (California) Rs 17,500 Almond (Gurbandi-new) Rs 8,200-8,500; Almond (Girdhi) Rs 4,200-4,500; Abjosh Afghani Rs 8,000-22,000.
