At a time when the consumers were feeling a bit relieved after the prices of essential goods declined a few days ago, the sudden rise in the price of tomato had come as a rude shock here on Tuesday.

According to market sources, the tomato price per kg revolved around ₹ 82 per kg from ₹ 46 per kg. Though there were no specific reasons for the price jacking up, horticulture department officials said that poor arrivals from the farms to the market had led to the hike.
