Pistachio prices rose by Rs 5 per kg in the national capital today on fresh buying support from retailers and stockists amid low stocks.

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

Pistachio hairati and peshwari traded higher by Rs 5 to settle at Rs 1,005-1,125 and Rs 1,305-1,355 per kg, respectively.

Market analysts said fresh demand from retailers and stockists, driven by marriage season demand against fall in supplies from overseas markets mainly pushed up the pistachio prices on the wholesale dry fruit market here.

Following are today's quotations in Rs per 40 kg:

Almond (California) Rs 10,000 Almond (gurbandi-new) Rs 4,800-5,000 almond (girdhi) Rs 2,800-2,900 and Abjosh Afghani Rs 7,000-20,000.

Almond kernel in per kg (California) Rs 350-360,almond kernel (gurbandi-new) (kg) Rs 325-425.
