Gur prices remain steady

After yesterday's sharp rise, gur prices remained flat at previous levels in the wholesale gur (Jaggery) market today as demand declined at higher levels amid increased supplies.

Marketmen said fall in demand at higher levels and higher supplies mainly kept gur prices at last levels.
