At the National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange, wheat for delivery in December month fell by Rs 14, or 0.68 per cent, to Rs 2,038 per quintal with an open interest of 9,550 lots.
Similarly, the wheat for delivery in November contracts shed Rs 3, or 0.15 per cent, to Rs 2,029 per quintal in 10,230 lots.
