Onion prices rose by as much as 30 per cent on Thursday to hit a two-week high, following a sharp increase in demand brought on by the government’s decision to lift a six-month old export ban.

In the benchmark Lasalgaon Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) mandi, the model onion price shot up to trade at Rs 21.50 a kg from Rs 16.50 the previous day. This price level was not seen after February 11.
