NEW DELHI, Feb 9: In limited deals, rajmah prices rose by Rs 50 per quintal on the wholesale pulses market today on firm demand from retailers against tight supplies following less arrivals from producing belts.
However, other pulses continued to move in a tight range on alternate bouts of trading and settled at previous levels.
Marketmen said besides firm demand, tight stocks availability due to less arrivals from producing regions mainly led to rise in rajmah chitra prices.
In the national capital, rajmah chitra moved up by Rs 50 to Rs 7,700-8,550 per quintal.
