Wheat prices advanced by Rs 20 per quintal at the wholesale grains market today following increased offtake by flour mills amid pause in arrivals from producing belts.

However, other grains held steady in thin trade.

Traders said, besides increased offtake by flour mills, fall in arrivals from producing belts, mainly kept wheat prices higher.

In the national capital, wheat dara (for mills) and wheat MP (desi) rose by Rs 20 each to Rs 1,830-1,835 and Rs 2,120-2,220 per quintal, respectively. Atta chakki delivery followed suit and enquired higher by a similar margin to Rs 1,840-1,845 per 90 kg.

Atta flour mills, maida and sooji also settled higher by Rs 10 each to Rs 990-1,000, Rs 1,010-1,020 and Rs 1,080-1,090 per 50 kg, respectively in line with wheat trend.

Following are today's quotations (in Rs per quintal):
