MUMBAI – Mustard prices rose in key spot markets on Thursday amid firm demand, traders said. Groundnut prices were steady in Visavadar, Gujarat, and Ratlam, Madhya Pradesh, while soybean prices rose in Visavadar and remained steady in Ratlam, they said.
SOYBEAN prices in Visavadar rose by INR 400 per 100 kilograms to INR 6,000-INR 7,900, Ashok Virvani, a local trader, said. Prices rose on improved soybean quality available in the market. "There is good quality oilseeds coming in, which has demand in the market," he said.
In Ratlam, soybean prices and arrivals remained steady, local trader Narendra Porwal said. Prices were unchanged at INR 5,000-INR 6,700 per 100 kg, while arrivals were steady at 800 tonnes. "Prices are already very high at the current level and are likely to stay firm in the near-term," Porwal said. "The demand is also balanced as people have already purchased and kept enough stock ahead of Diwali," he added.
GROUNDNUT prices in Visavadar were steady at INR 8,000-INR 10,800 per 100 kg, Virvani said. Mixed-quality groundnut prices were down by INR 200 per 100 kg. Groundnut prices in Ratlam were also steady at INR 4,000-INR 7,800 per 100 kg, Porwal said. Market arrivals were also unchanged at 600 tonnes.
MUSTARD seed prices in Jaipur rose by INR 100 per 100 kg to INR 9,125-INR 9,150, according to Marudhar Trading Agency. Arrivals were steady at 225,000 bags (1 bag = 40 kg).
