Wheat dara up on flour mills' buying support

In restricted trade activity, wheat dara prices rose by Rs 10 per quintal on the wholesale grains market today on scattered buying by flour mills.

Other commodities including rice, however, after moving in a tight range in restricted activity, closed at previous levels.

Traders said scattered buying by flour mills helped wheat dara prices to move up. In the national capital, wheat dara (for mills) rose by Rs 10 to Rs 1,175-1,180 per quintal.

Atta chakki delivery followed suit and traded higher by Rs 20 to Rs 1,200-1,205 per 90 kg, while maida gained Rs 20 to Rs 720-750 per 50 kg.
