Daam (Price / Rate)·دام
Roman Urdu: Daam / Bhao
Daam is the per-unit price at which a lot trades in the mandi — quoted per maund, per 40 kg, or per kg depending on the crop. It is discovered by open auction (boli) and depends on quality, grade, moisture, supply, and season. Daam × quantity gives the gross lot value before any deductions.
