Moong, masoor fall on sluggish demand

Prices of moong and masoor fell up to Rs 100 per quintal at the wholesale pulses market today on slackened demand at prevailing higher levels.
However, other pulses moved in a narrow range in scattered deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said slackened demand at prevailing higher levels mainly kept pressure on moong and masoor prices.
In the national capital, moong and its dal chilka local fell by Rs 100 each to Rs 5,800-6,300 and Rs 6,400-6,800, while moong dal dhoya local and best quality traded lower by the same margin to Rs 6,600-6,700 and Rs 7,200-7,300 per quintal, respectively.

Masoor small and bold followed suit and shed Rs 50 each to Rs 4,200-4,450 and Rs 4,400-4,500 per quintal, respectively. Its dal local and best quality too enquired lower by similar margin to Rs 5,000-5,100 and Rs 5,050-5,150 per quintal, respectively.
