Coriander prices rose by 1.57 per cent to Rs 7,450 per quintal in futures market Wednesday as participants built up fresh positions amid rising spot demand.
Besides, tight stocks on account of restricted arrivals from major growing regions weighed on coriander futures.

Similarly, contracts for July delivery were trading higher by Rs 127, or 1.71 per cent, at Rs 7,560 per quintal with an open interest of 7,060 lots.
Market analysts attributed the rise in coriander futures to upsurge in demand at the physical market against tight supply.
