Masur Prices Remain Stable Despite Government Directive

Mumbai, 12 Apr 2024 (Commoditiescontrol):Domestic and imported masur (lentil) prices have remained stable despite the government's recent directive requiring weekly disclosure of pulse stocks.

Desi masur prices held steady in the domestic market thanks to robust demand and a balanced supply. The only exception was the Lalitpur market, where prices increased by Rs 50/quintal. Similarly, imported masur prices remained largely unchanged, with the exception of Australian nugget variety gaining Rs 50/quintal in the Kolkata market.

Masur prices are expected to remain within their current range. This is despite a larger domestic crop and increased imports, as strong demand shifts from the more expensive tur dal to masur.
