What does modal price mean?

Modal price is the most common wholesale price reported for that commodity on a given day across mandi transactions, in Indian rupees per quintal (100 kg).

Where does this data come from?

Figures are wholesale mandi arrival records aggregated in the DeshSeva database and updated as imports and sync jobs run. For time-sensitive decisions, cross-check against official government releases.

Why is this page specific to a variety?

Many commodities are traded under named varieties (for example different wheat or paddy types). Filtering by variety compares prices for that type more accurately than mixing all varieties together.

What does the shaded band on the daily chart mean?

For each arrival date we plot the average modal price (line) and the minimum and maximum modal prices reported that day across mandis in our database. The shaded area shows that same-day spread; it is not a forecast.
