In the ongoing chain reaction of price hike caused by unprecedented rise in fuel prices, tandoor operators have also raised prices of all varieties of roti — chapati, naan, sheermal, kulcha and taftan — by Rs2 to 15 to pass on the increase in cost of production to consumers.
The low quality and lighter weight chapati is now available at Rs10 instead of Rs8.
The operators selling naan at Rs15 are now seen demanding Rs18 per piece while some big traders have fixed the rate of naan at Rs20, up from Rs18 in near past. The new price of milk-flavoured naan is Rs35 instead of Rs30.
Better quality sheermal, taftan available for Rs70 a piece
The new rates of sheermal and taftan are Rs60 per piece, up from Rs45-50, while the products with better quality and higher weight are being sold at Rs70 instead of Rs60. Price of a good quality kulcha hover between Rs50-60 as compared to Rs45-50 in recent past.
