Prices of chana rose in Delhi due to improved demand from dal millers and domestic stockists. In Bikaner, chana was quoted at 3,850 rupees per 100 kg, unchanged. The rise in prices was also because the central government has raised the import duty on chana for the third time so far in 2017-18 (Apr-Mar) to 60% from 40%. The most active March futures on the NCDEX were up 32 rupees.
