Guargum prices spurted further by Rs 202 to Rs 6,988 per quintal in future trading today as speculators engaged in expanding their positions, driven by firm physical markets sentiment.
Marketmen said widening of positions by speculators, triggered by strong demand at the spot markets against less arrivals from growing regions, mainly supported the upside.
