NEW DELHI – Prices of wheat rose across the benchmark markets in India on high domestic demand, while maize prices were unavailable in Purnea, Bihar, as most mandis were shut and auctions were not held on account of Chhath Puja, market participants said.
* Prices of mill-quality WHEAT rose today in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, due to firm demand from bulk buyers and stockists, local trader N.K. Agarwal said.
* In Indore, arrivals were pegged flat at 5,000 bags (1 bag = 50 kg). Sowing of wheat has just started in Indore, traders said.
* Prices of mill-quality wheat rose in Kota, Rajasthan, because of high domestic demand and decline in arrivals, said Aniket Mehta, a local trader.
