Coriander futures fell by Rs. 140, or 0.84%, to Rs. 16,550 per quintal on Monday, pressured by subdued demand in the spot market and reduced positions by market participants.
On the National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange (NCDEX), coriander contracts for December delivery declined Rs. 140 to Rs. 16,550 per quintal, with an open interest of 16,710 lots.
Market analysts attributed the decline to weak spot demand and profit-booking by speculators, which weighed on coriander futures prices.
