In thin trading, wheat dara prices fell by Rs 10 per quintal on the wholesale grains market today due to reduced offtake by stockists due to fall in demand from flour mills against adequate stocks.
However, other grains including rice after moving in a tight range on scattered deals settled around previous levels.
Traders said reduced offtake by stockists following fall in demand from flour mills put pressure on wheat dara prices.
In the national capital, wheat dara (for mills) traded Rs 10 lower at Rs 1,645-1,650 per quintal, while wheat MP (deshi) held flat at Rs 2,070-2,270 per quintal.
