Cardamom prices rose 0.91% to Rs 936 per kg in futures trade today as traders enlarged commitments amid pick-up in export and domestic demand.

At the Multi Commodity Exchange, cardamom for delivery in September rose by Rs 8.50, or 0.91%, to Rs 936 per kg, with a business turnover of 234 lots.

Similarly, the spice for delivery in August edged up by Rs 5.80, or 0.60%, to Rs 958.40 per kg with a trading volume of just two lots.
