Lemon will be expensive this year
Wholesaler Lavkush Saini says that lemon is going to be expensive this year. Lemon was also expensive during pickle time i.e. in the months of January-February. Even at that time, due to its price being ₹100 per kg, many people could not even add pickles. The main reason for the increase in the price of lemon is the reduction in its crop this year. At present, the fresh price of lemon in bulk is ranging from Rs 140 to ₹ 150 per kg. At the same time, the same lemon is being sold in retail for ₹ 180 to ₹ 200 per kg in the markets.
