Pistachio up on rising demand

NEW DELHI: Pistachio prices rose by Rs 5 per kg in the national capital today largely on the back of fresh buying by retailers and stockists amid low stocks.


Fall in supplies from overseas markets also supported the rise in the prices.

Pistachio hairati and peshwari rose by Rs 5 each to conclude at Rs 800-860 and Rs 980-1,000 per kg, respectively.

Marketmen said fresh buying by retailers and stockists against fall in supplies from overseas markets, mainly pushed up pistachio prices.
