# India rice prices rise on improved demand, fresh supply caps gains

> Indian rice prices rose on improved demand from Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, with 5% broken parboiled quoted at $399-402 per tonne. Thai 5% broken rose to $380-387 per tonne FOB Bangkok after northeast floods cut Hom Mali output. New-season Indian crops are expected to cap further gains.
