Coriander futures moved higher on Wednesday as traders increased their positions amid firm demand in the spot market.

On the National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange (NCDEX), coriander contracts for June delivery rose Rs 78, or 0.63 per cent, to Rs 12,478 per quintal, with trading recorded in 22,630 lots.

Market analysts said stronger spot market sentiment and limited supplies from key producing regions supported the rise in coriander prices.
