Cashew prices fell by Rs 5 per kg in the national capital on Saturday largely due to subdued demand from retailers and stockists.
Sufficient stocks position following increased arrivals from producing belts also weighed on the cashew prices.
Cashew kernel (No 180, 210, 240 and 230) prices fell by Rs 5 each to settle at Rs 680-740, Rs 660-680, Rs 580-605 and Rs 505-555 per kg, respectively.
