Cardamom prices rose by Rs 3.80 to Rs 761.30 per kg in futures trade today largely in tandem with a firming spot markets trend on pick-up in demand amid restricted arrivals.

On the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), the July contract surged by Rs 3.80, or 0.50%, to Rs 761.30 per kg in 65 lots.

The spice for delivery in June gained Rs 3, or 0.41%, to Rs 732 per kg in a business volume of 475 lots.

Traders said pick-up in demand in the spot market against restricted arrivals from producing regions resulted into the rise in cardamom prices in the futures market.
