Bajra prices inched up by Rs 10 per quintal at the wholesale grains market today following increased offtake by consuming industries against tight supplies from producing regions.
However, other grains traded in a narrow range in scattered deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said increased demand from consuming industries against restricted supplies from producing regions mainly led to rise in bajra prices.
In the national capital, bajra moved up by Rs 10 to Rs 1,390-1,400 per quintal.
