According to one of the Indore based manufacturers, “ Prices are likely to be down in the domestic market in near future to keep them competitive. The major supply of finished products to Indore comes from the Jalna market owing to short distance from Raipur; however Raipur mainly covers Bhopal, Jabalpur & Gwalior market”.
