Wheat, bajra weaken on reduced offtake

Wheat and bajra prices drifted by Rs 5 per quintal on the wholesale grains market today due to reduced offtake by flour mills and stockists against sufficient supplies.
Traders said reduced offtake by flour mills and stockists against sufficient supplies mainly led to decline in wheat and bajra prices.
In the national capital, wheat dara (for mills) declined by Rs 5 to Rs 1,635-1,640 per quintal, while atta chakki followed suit and traded lower by the same margin to Rs 1,640-1,645 per 90 kg.
Bajra also eased by Rs 5 to Rs 1,265-1,270 per quintal.
