Amid profit booking by speculators at existing levels and subdued demand in the spot market, cardamom prices fell by 0.88% to Rs 1,110 per kg in futures trade today.
Further, adequate stocks position in the physical market on increased supplies from producing belts put pressure on cardamom prices.

Similarly, the spice for delivery in March contracts traded lower by 20 paise, or 0.02% to Rs 1140.50 per kg in 191 lots.
