Jeera edges up on scattered demand

In restricted activity, jeera prices rose by Rs 100 per quintal at the kirana market in the national capital today on scattered demand from stockists and retailers.
However, other spices moved in a narrow range in limited deals and pegged at last levels.
Traders said mild demand from retailers and stockists helped jeera prices to trade higher.
