# Beans rise Rs 40, raw mangoes drop Rs 40 at Koyambedu market 2026-10-31T17:56:49+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet At Chennai's Koyambedu wholesale market on Friday (30 October 2026), beans rose by Rs 40 to Rs 100 per kg compared to 14 October, while raw mangoes fell by the same amount to Rs 90 per kg, according to market data. Onions increased by Rs 15 to Rs 75 per kg, tomatoes by Rs 20 to Rs 50, and ginger by Rs 10 to Rs 170. Lemons dropped by Rs 30 to Rs 150 per kg, green chillies by Rs 10 to Rs 60, garlic by Rs 20 to Rs 230, and peas by Rs 10 to Rs 90. Stable essential vegetable rates included potato at Rs 32, drumstick at Rs 50, shallot at Rs 140, okra at Rs 20, and brinjal at Rs 30 per kg. Coriander stood at Rs 8 per bunch, mint at Rs 7, and curry leaves at Rs 30 per kg. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The price swings at Koyambedu, Chennai's largest wholesale market, hit consumers' kitchen budgets unevenly: a Rs 40 jump for beans raises the cost of a common south Indian side dish, while cheaper raw mangoes offer seasonal relief for pickles and curries. The data records fortnightly changes without explaining supply or demand factors, leaving unanswered why onions, tomatoes and ginger all rose while several other vegetables fell. Shoppers and small eateries will watch next week's arrival figures for a fuller picture of whether the increases hold. ## Coverage - dtnext.in Straight list of price changes without editorial framing This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
