In order to control the unbridled price of all pulses including tur, urad, moong and gram, the central government has taken other steps including providing urad and tur dal to consumers at cheaper rates. However, pulses traders consider it insufficient. He says that the price of pulses will moderate slightly in the coming days, but to increase domestic availability, import of tur is necessary. The All India Mill Association says that unless the government releases the buffer stock of tur in the open market or issues a license for import, the inflation of pulses will not be stopped as traders have very little stock of tur and new The harvest is still two months late.
In Delhi-NCR, consumers have to pay Rs 120 to 140 for tur dal, Rs 130 to Rs 150 for urad and Rs 120 to 150 per kg of moong. According to the prices compiled on the website of the Union Ministry of Consumer Affairs, the retail price of tur on Sunday was 75 to 125 rupees, urad dal prices 70 to 126 rupees, moong dal prices 80 to 120 rupees per kg in the country.

Pulses market experts say that the arrival of the new crop of tur has started, yet the government has recently allowed import of 1.50 lakh tonnes of urad.
