New Delhi: Onion has made the common consumers cry for the last four months, because buying 100 rupees onion is not enough for everyone. In such a situation, no one knows when the price of onion will decrease. The price which was expected to come down due to increase in arrival of foreign onion, but that too is looking bleak now, because Turkey has banned export of onion. Turkey is the major producer of onions in the world. Apart from this, the arrival of onion may be affected due to the rains again in Maharashtra, the country's largest onion producer, which may support prices.
On Thursday, the retail price of onions in the Indian capital Delhi and adjoining area was Rs 100-140 per kg. However, according to the price list given on the website of the Union Ministry of Consumer Affairs, the retail price of onion in Delhi was Rs 107 per kg. According to the ministry's website, the retail price of onions across the country was Rs 48-150 per kg on Thursday.
The wholesale price of onion in Delhi was Rs 20-95 per kg on Thursday, though the incoming was 1020.3 tonnes. Apart from Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat, the arrival of foreign onion was in Azadpur mandi, in which the most expensive price was Rs 62.50-95 per kg onion coming from Maharashtra.
