Masoor, its dal slide on subdued demand

Masoor and its dal prices fell by Rs 200 per quintal at the wholesale market today owing to slackened demand against sufficient stocks position.
However, other commodities continued to trade in a narrow range on alternate bouts of buying and selling and settled around previous levels.
Traders said besides subdued demand, adequate stocks position on increased supplies from producing belts mainly pulled down masoor and its dal prices.
