At the National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange, turmeric for delivery in July rose by Rs 32 or 0.44 per cent to Rs 7,296 per quintal, with an open interest of 6,550 lots.
Similarly, the spice for delivery in June gained Rs 30 or 0.41 per cent to Rs 7,282 per quintal, with an open interest of 5,830 lots.
