Pune: The Ganesh Peth wholesale fish market witnessed a lower-than-usual supply of fish on Sunday, February 2, with stocks arriving from India’s eastern and western coasts.

Due to increased demand for pomfret, rawas, mackerel, prawns, and bombil, the prices of pomfret and rawas have surged, while other seafood prices remain steady compared to last week.

As per traders, approximately 10-15 tons of deep-sea fish, 400-500 kg of estuarine fish, and 1,000-1,200 kg of river fish were supplied to the market. Additionally, around 15-20 tons of rohu, katla, and silan were sourced from Andhra Pradesh.

Despite the fluctuations in fish prices, the prices of mutton, chicken, and both desi and English eggs have remained stable due to a balanced demand and supply scenario.
