New Delhi: The price is about where it was on the previous market day (6 October 2026): ₹2,345 then, ₹2,300 now.

Bajra prices came in from 137 mandis in 9 states today. The lowest was ₹1,750 and the highest ₹5,729; most of that gap is variety and quality.

Bajra's MSP is ₹2,900 a quintal. Today 136 of 149 mandis (91%) paid less than that.

Before you sell: compare two or three nearby mandis, add the cost of transport, and take the crop dried and graded — clean produce fetches a better price.
