Moth prices were up by Rs 100 per quintal in an otherwise steady wholesale pulses market today on increased buying.
However, other pulses traded in a tight range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said selective buying from retailers amid restricted arrivals from producing regions mainly pushed up moth prices.
In the national capital, moth went up by Rs 100 to Rs 4,800-5,100 per quintal.
