Prices of coriander rose marginally in Kota, Rajasthan, despite higher arrivals, due to improved demand from processors. Processors have stepped up their purchases as coriander prices have fallen around 1,000 rupees per 100 kg since January, when fresh arrivals had started, due to higher carry-over stocks. In Kota, the benchmark market, badami variety was sold at 5,000 rupees per 100 kg and prices of eagle variety were at 5,250 rupees per 100 kg, both up 50-70 rupees. Arrivals of the spice in Rajasthan were pegged at 12,000 bags (1 bag = 40 kg), up 1,500 bags from previous day.
