Tomato prices in Hyderabad have surged dramatically, with costs approaching Rs 100 per kg, a stark increase from Rs 20 to 30 just a month and a half ago.
Currently, the price of tomatoes prices ranges from Rs 60 to 80 per kg at Rythu Bazars and wholesale shops, while retail
markets are nearing the Rs 100 mark.
In response to the soaring prices, some restaurants and eateries have reduced their tomato usage. Due to the current surge in prices, sales volume has reportedly decreased significantly, as consumers are opting for other vegetables instead of tomatoes.
