At the National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange, chana for delivery in December was trading higher by Rs 47, or 0.97%, to Rs 4,874 per quintal, with an open interest of 51,350 lots.

On similar lines, the commodity for delivery in November traded higher by Rs 43, or 0.91%, to Rs 4,778 per quintal in 26,250 lots.
