# Sehore onion prices hit Rs 70 per kg, traders warn of more rise 2026-11-14T04:57:06+00:00 | India | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Outlets counted: bhaskar.com Onion prices in Sehore have touched Rs 70 per kilogram, up sharply due to lower arrivals from Maharashtra’s Nasik and a shortfall in local supply. Traders said the supply drop has pushed up prices, squeezing household budgets already under inflation pressure. Market trader Satish Darotia said the main reason is a shortage in the market. Arrivals from Nasik have fallen, and local stocks are also inadequate. Prices have risen despite a dip in demand. Darotia warned that if Nasik arrivals do not increase and local availability stays low, prices could climb further. Prices normally rise in summer when arrivals drop, but this time they have hit Rs 70 per kg in winter. Traders are watching fresh shipments from Nasik and local arrivals, relief is expected only if supply improves. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The price rise hits a kitchen staple at a time when families are already managing high inflation. The key unresolved issue is the supply gap from Nasik, which accounts for a large share of Madhya Pradesh's onion supply. Without a pickup in arrivals, prices are unlikely to ease. Traders are watching the next shipments from Nasik. ## Coverage - bhaskar.com Straight market report with trader quotes, no government framing.
