NEW DELHI, Nov 1: Red chilli and jeera prices drifted up to Rs 300 per quintal in the national capital today owing to subdued demand from retailers and stockists.
Besides, adequate stocks on increased arrivals too weighed on prices.
Red chilli fell by Rs 200 to settle at Rs 8,100-13,100 per quintal.
Jeera common and best quality also declined by Rs 300 each to conclude at Rs 10,500-10,800 and Rs 14,000-14,200 per quintal, respectively.
