The coriander market presents a distinctive blend of stability and cautious optimism as we move through the second half of 2025. With uneven rainfall across Rajasthan—the largest producing region—balancing both supply and demand, coriander prices have avoided sharp movements. Recent showers have improved crop conditions, but traders and farmers are showing restraint, with gradual stock releases ensuring that the market remains largely range-bound. In key mandis like Ramganj and Kota, coriander prices have slightly strengthened, an indication of healthy but measured buying interest. Gujarat’s markets are also showing firmness, supported by robust, yet not aggressive, demand from spice processors, retailers, and export channels.
Production forecasts for the 2025–26 season suggest a moderate increase in output, while export activity continues to provide a floor for market prices. The steady nature of Indian coriander exports, especially to Gulf and Southeast Asian markets, further bolsters sentiment. However, with weather remaining a critical factor and speculative activity subdued, the near-term outlook favors stability over volatility. The current year’s price behavior, set against the backdrop of previous seasons, reveals a narrative of resilience, with global market trends and Indian inventory management likely to keep coriander trading in a well-defined price corridor.
