Hyderabad: Onion prices in Hyderabad have started falling due to increased production in Telangana and other parts of Maharashtra.
Due to the surplus supply of onions to the city of Hyderabad, the price of onions has come down to Rs. 20 per kg in local markets.
The trend of fall in onion price in Hyderabad is likely to continue for the next one month.
Onion traders said that earlier, around 150-180 trucks loaded with onions used to come from the neighboring state of Maharashtra to the markets of Begum Bazaar, Bowenpally, Malakpet and Osmanganj.
However, due to increase in production in Telangana districts, especially Mahabubnagar, Medak and Ranga Reddy, onions from these districts are preferred as they are also lower in price than onions coming from the state of Maharashtra.
