India, June 18 -- Coriander futures traded lower on Thursday as subdued demand in the physical market and profit booking by traders weighed on prices.

On the National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange (NCDEX), coriander contracts for August delivery declined by Rs 66, or 0.46 per cent, to Rs 14,228 per quintal, with an open interest of 23,805 lots.

According to market analysts, weak buying activity in the spot market coupled with selling by speculators at higher levels put pressure on coriander prices, resulting in a marginal decline in futures trading.
