Vegetable Mandi Prices Today: Check Latest Rates in Delhi, Punjab and Haryana Before You Shop

Before heading out to buy vegetables, checking the latest mandi rates can help consumers understand whether retail prices are reasonable and how supply conditions are changing across North India. Vegetable prices can vary sharply between wholesale markets, cities and neighbourhood retailers, depending on arrivals, weather, transportation costs and local demand.

The latest available market data around September 3, 2026 shows significant differences in the prices of everyday kitchen staples such as tomato, potato and onion across Delhi and Haryana. For Punjab, prices also vary considerably from one mandi to another, making it more useful to compare local mandi quotations rather than rely on a single state-wide number.

The government’s Agmarknet platform tracks daily commodity prices and arrivals across agricultural markets, while state marketing boards also direct users to these market-rate systems for updated information.

Delhi Vegetable Mandi Rates: What Are the Latest Prices?

For Delhi consumers, Azadpur Mandi remains one of the most important wholesale markets influencing vegetable supplies across the National Capital Region.

The latest price list available from the official Azadpur Agricultural Produce Market Committee for September 1, 2026 showed the following wholesale price ranges:

These are wholesale mandi ranges, not guaranteed retail prices. The actual amount paid by households can be higher after transportation, sorting, wastage, retailer margins and local supply conditions are added.

Independent market tracking data dated September 2 also indicated Delhi mandi prices of around ₹26 per kg for tomato and ₹27 per kg for potato, while onion prices were higher depending on size and quality. These figures should be treated as market snapshots rather than a single official price applicable to every Delhi mandi.

Haryana Vegetable Prices: Tomato, Potato and Onion Rates

Haryana is showing substantial variation between individual markets. In Karnal, data available for September 3, 2026 showed approximate market prices of:

These figures can change during the day and may differ by quality and variety.

A broader Haryana market snapshot published on September 2 showed tomato at around ₹16 per kg and potato at around ₹22 per kg at the state-level benchmark used by that tracker, again highlighting why consumers should not assume that one price applies across every mandi.

Tomato prices, in particular, showed meaningful variation between Haryana markets. Data for September 2 indicated modal wholesale tomato rates ranging from around ₹1,604 per quintal in Karnal to approximately ₹1,915 per quintal in Faridabad among the listed markets.

Punjab Vegetable Mandi Rates: Why Local Prices Matter

Punjab's vegetable market prices can differ depending on the mandi, local arrivals and the source of supplies. A state-wide number may therefore be misleading for consumers.

For the most accurate daily wholesale rates, buyers, farmers and traders should check the relevant market on the government-backed Agmarknet system, which provides commodity-wise minimum, maximum and modal prices along with arrival information. The National Portal of India also directs users to Agmarknet for updated agricultural market price and arrival reports.

The key point for Punjab consumers is that a vegetable quoted at one price in a large mandi may be considerably cheaper or more expensive in another market because of differences in arrivals, transportation distance, quality and local demand.

Why Vegetable Prices Differ Between Delhi, Punjab and Haryana

A comparison of vegetable prices is not as straightforward as comparing the price of a packaged product. Mandi quotations depend on several factors.

1. Daily Market Arrivals

When larger quantities of vegetables reach a mandi, prices may come under pressure. Lower arrivals, on the other hand, can support higher prices.

This is particularly important for highly perishable vegetables such as tomato, leafy vegetables, okra and cauliflower.

2. Weather Conditions

Heavy rainfall, flooding or transport disruptions can affect both harvesting and the movement of vegetables from farms to wholesale markets. North Indian vegetable supplies are especially sensitive to weather-related disruptions during the monsoon season.

3. Quality and Variety

The same vegetable can have a wide price range in a mandi. A better-quality or premium variety may command a much higher price than lower-grade produce.

This explains why mandi boards often publish minimum and maximum rates instead of one fixed price.

4. Transportation and Retail Margins

The wholesale price is only one part of what consumers ultimately pay. Vegetables may pass through multiple stages before reaching a neighbourhood shop or street vendor.

Transport costs, spoilage, handling expenses and retailer margins can all increase the final retail price.

What Consumers Should Keep in Mind Before Buying Vegetables

Mandi rates are useful as a benchmark, but they should not be treated as the final price consumers must receive.

If a vegetable is trading at ₹20 per kg in a wholesale market, it does not necessarily mean a local retailer can sell it at the same price. At the same time, a very large gap between wholesale and retail prices may encourage consumers to compare nearby shops.

For regular household buyers, the most practical approach is:

• Check the latest wholesale market trend.

• Compare prices at two or three local vendors when possible.

• Pay attention to quality and freshness, not only the lowest quoted price.

• Remember that prices can change quickly after heavy rain, supply disruptions or a sudden rise in demand.

What to Watch Next

Vegetable prices in Delhi, Punjab and Haryana will continue to depend heavily on daily arrivals and weather conditions over the coming days. Tomato and other perishable vegetables deserve particular attention because supply disruptions can cause faster price movements.

Consumers should also distinguish between wholesale mandi prices and retail prices. Government market data is useful for understanding the underlying supply trend, while the actual amount paid at a local shop will depend on the specific city, market and quality of produce.

Conclusion

The latest available data shows that vegetable prices remain highly market-specific across North India. In Delhi, official Azadpur Mandi quotations showed broad wholesale ranges for staples including tomato, onion and potato, while Haryana markets such as Karnal reported different levels for the same products.

For Punjab, Delhi and Haryana consumers, checking the latest mandi data before shopping can provide a useful benchmark—but the final retail bill will still depend on local supply, quality and retailer costs.
