Ahmedabad, November 13 (CommoditiesControl): The cumin market in Gujarat experienced a slowdown today, with limited buying activity observed over the past two days. Traders indicate that high prices have dampened demand, leading to a period of price stability.

The market's outlook remains cautious, with any potential price movement in the near future largely dependent on export demand. Without this external support, further price increases are unlikely.

Last week, Gujarat’s cumin market saw a brief surge in prices, fueled by purchases from China. This export-driven demand led to higher prices and encouraged farmers to sell off their stock. However, with export demand now tapering off and the arrival of new cumin stock, prices have stabilized.

Today, approximately 10,000 bags of cumin (1 bag = 40 kg) arrived in Unja Mandi, one of the key trading centers in Gujarat. The prices for cumin in the mandi were as follows:
- Rough cumin: Rs 4050-4200 per 20 kg
- Best quality cumin: Rs 4350-4500 per 20 kg
- Bombay Bold: Rs 4500-4750 per 20 kg

In other major mandis:
- Gondal Mandi saw arrivals of 1,256 bags, with prices ranging from Rs 4501-4841 per 20 kg.
- Rajkot Mandi reported the arrival of around 2,000 bags, with prices between Rs 4300-4800 per 20 kg.

Traders say the market is now largely waiting to see if any fresh export demand materializes. Without this, the likelihood of further price increases remains limited. Additionally, with the arrival of fresh crops, the supply side remains robust, and it will be important to see if the demand from domestic markets can absorb this new stock.

In the coming days, prices are expected to hold steady unless a significant shift in demand occurs.
