India, June 2 -- Coriander prices declined in futures trade on Tuesday as subdued demand in the physical market prompted traders to reduce their positions.

On the National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange, the June delivery coriander contract fell Rs 90, or 0.70%, to Rs 12,790 per quintal, with an open interest of 23,820 lots.

The contract had settled at Rs 12,880 per quintal in the previous trading session. Market participants attributed the decline to weak spot demand and profit-booking by traders, which weighed on coriander futures prices.
