Mumbai, 26 Sep (Commoditiescontrol): Rajasthan origin Chana firmed up by Rs 25/100Kg at Delhi's Naya Bazaar market on need-based buying from besan and dall mills. On the other hand, Madhya Pradesh origing Chana prices remained unchanged.
Rajasthan origin Chana was offered in the range of Rs 4,900 - Rs 4,925/100kg while and M.P. origin chana traded at Rs 4,850/100kg.
About 15 truckloads of supply arrived in the markets, down from 20 truckloads in the previous session.
Moreover, NCCF has invited bids to purchase Chana dal to supply in Haryana by 27th November, 2022. However, sentiments are still under pressure as Nafed, too, is actively liquidating old procured Chana stock at discounted price in major state.
Chhattisgarh, Tamil Nadu, Himachal Pradesh, Gujarat and Karnataka have intended to procure Chana from the central government at discounted rate of Rs 8 per kg under various welfare schemes. They will send indents after assessing requirement.
Currently, central government has a stock of 30 lakh tonnes and is liquidating old crop chana stock at a brisk pace to create space for new harvest due in April 2023. The buffer norm for chana is 6 lakh tonnes.
