Guar seed prices went up by Rs 26 to Rs 4,365 per quintal in futures trade today on optimistic buying by investors, spurred by bullish spot market sentiments.

Marketmen said participants raised their holdings on the back of tight supplies from growing regions, powered by pick up in demand from guar gum making industries in the spot markets, which led to the up move in guar seed futures prices.
