Wholesale traders in the Delhi-NCR region have reported substantial price increases resulting from a lower-than-expected supply of vegetables. A report by The Times of India says that the wholesale prices of potatoes at Gurgaon's Khandsa market rose to 20-25 rupees per kg on Monday, nearly doubling from 12-20 rupees a few weeks earlier. Retail prices followed suit, with potatoes being sold to consumers for 40-50 rupees per kg.
