\n Dear Client,<\/p>\n
Please find below the latest market intelligence for the Indian Spice sector as of
\n 22 August 2026.<\/p>\n
A mixed trend was observed in the Kirana market today. Key spices like Nutmeg, Cloves, Mace, and Cinnamon saw significant price increases driven by robust demand, while Turmeric softened slightly due to weak selling pressure.<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Nutmeg prices saw an increase due to limited arrivals in Kochi and sustained buying interest from stockists. Despite a lack of exporter activity, market sentiment remains firm, building on previous gains. The outlook suggests continued stability in the short term, with firmness expected to persist.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Turmeric continued its upward trajectory following recent price increases, with the Erode variety seeing a significant jump. Reports from Erode indicate strong arrivals but also a notable price hike. Robust buying by stockists has influenced active futures trading. The market anticipates further appreciation in prices in the coming days.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Despite recent gains, Large Cardamom is currently experiencing a dull market due to anticipated new crop arrivals by month-end or early next month. Auction prices have softened recently, influencing overall sentiment. However, underlying factors like adverse weather impacting crop development and reduced imports from Nepal suggest a potential for firmness in the longer term, though immediate price rises are not expected.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Following previous improvements, Coriander sales are currently dull, leading to prices remaining stable at prior levels. Reports from Baran mandi in Rajasthan indicate moderate arrivals and unchanged prices from the previous day. Reduced activity from stockists is contributing to a softening in active futures contracts. The market anticipates continued sluggishness in the short term.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Despite increased Cumin arrivals in Unjha, prices have remained at previous day’s levels due to sluggish demand. Stockist activity is minimal, leading to stability at prior price points. Although active futures contracts saw a slight recovery, the market anticipates Cumin prices to remain within a limited range for the immediate future.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Fenugreek sales are currently dull, despite being in the consumption season, keeping prices unchanged from previous levels. Producer regions report stable prices and arrivals. Monsoon season is influencing market sentiment. The outlook indicates no immediate risk of a significant price decline for Fenugreek in the coming days.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \n 📲 Get these daily Key Takeaways<\/strong> the moment they’re out \u2014 free on Telegram:\n <\/p>\nNutmeg’s Firm Stance Holds Strong 🌰<\/h3>\n
