New Delhi: Against ₹15,000 on the previous market day (8 November 2026), the price is ₹1,000 lower (6.7%). 121 mandis reported that day, 159 today.

Lemon prices came in from 159 mandis in 10 states today. The lowest was ₹5,000 and the highest ₹25,250; most of that gap is variety and quality.

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.
