NEW DELHI, Aug 26: Cardamom prices drifted by 0.16 per cent to Rs 764.50 per kg in futures trade today owing to slackened demand at the spot markets at prevailing levels against adequate positions.
At the Multi Commodity Exchange, cardamom for delivery in September weakened by Rs 1.20, or 0.16 per cent to Rs 764.50 per kg in business turnover of 382 lots.
