New Delhi: The price is about where it was on the previous market day (6 October 2026): ₹4,750 then, ₹4,750 now.

Banana prices came in from 368 mandis in 22 states today. The lowest was ₹1,500 and the highest ₹11,250; 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.
