Wheat gains on scattered demand from flour mills

Wheat prices rose marginally by Rs 5 per quintal in an otherwise steady wholesale grains market today on scattered demand from flour mills.
However, other grains settled around previous levels after moving in a tight range on some support.
Marketmen said mild demand from flour mills amid restricted supplies from producing regions mainly led to the rise in wheat prices.
In the national capital, wheat dara (for mills) inched up by Rs 5 to Rs 1,660-1,665 per quintal. Atta chakki delivery followed suit and edged up by a similar margin to Rs 1,665-1,670 per 90 kg.
