Jeera trading range for the day is 12570-13730. Support for Jeera is at 12770 below that could see a test of 12570. Resistance is seen at 13350 above that could see a resistance of 13730. In Unjha, a key spot market in Gujarat, Jeera dropped -176 rupees to end at 13567.15 rupees per 100 kg. 

Jeera June contract dropped Rs -500 and settled at Rs 12970 per quintal on the back of poor demand from the domestic as well as overseas buyers. The contract made intraday low of Rs 12950 a kg and high of Rs 13530 a kg. Jeera succumbed to downward pressure settling below the Rs13,000 mark for the first time in 3 weeks.

Jeera Futures are likely to witness further correction on expectation that arrivals might improve tracking higher price quotes. However, expectation of fresh overseas demand is likely to support prices in the short term. In the medium to long term prices are likely to witness a bounce back as there are limited stocks with Syria and Turkey and crop there is 30% short of last year.

According to Karvy Commtrade Jeera futures prices are projected to continue the corrections on liquidation of positions. Despite of declining arrivals prices are falling at spot front which is also weighing on futures prices. Reduced demand from local buyer due recent hike in prices is creating pressure on prices. However, traders are still expecting that these corrections might remain limited as prices will improve in near term due to lean season demand.
