Wheat prices traded marginally higher by Rs 5 per quintal at the wholesale grains market today on mild demand from flour mills against restricted arrivals from producing belts.

However, other grains remained steady in thin trade.

Traders said some demand from flour mills amid pause in supplies from growing regions helped wheat prices to trade marginally higher.

In the national capital, wheat dara (for mills) edged up by Rs 5 to Rs 1775-1780 per quintal. Atta chakki delivery followed suit and traded higher by similar margin to Rs 1785-1790 per 90 kg.

Atta flour mills and maida traded higher by Rs 5 each to Rs 965-975 and Rs 985-995 per 50 kg, respectively, in line with wheat trend.

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