Cashew declines on subdued demand
Cashew prices fell by Rs 10 per kg in the national capital today largely on the back of subdued demand from retailers and stockists.
Increased arrivals from producing belts also put pressure on the cashew prices.
Cashew kernel (No 180, 210, 240 and 230) prices fell by Rs 10 each to settle at Rs 720-740, Rs 665-690, Rs 585-600 and Rs 500-555 per kg, respectively.
Marketmen said fall in demand against adequate stocks mainly led to a fall in cashew kernel prices in the wholesale dry fruit market here.
The following are today's quotations (per 40 kg): Almond (California) Rs 13,800 Almond (Gurbandi-new) Rs 7,100-7,500; Almond (Girdhi) Rs 3,400-3,600; Abjosh Afghani Rs 8,000-20,000.
Almond Kernel (California-new) Rs 490-500 per kg, Almond Kernel (Gurbandi-new) Rs 350-450 per kg.
