Rates are different for different seedlings/place of purchase, quality etc. Generally 100-150 is the range.
However why not every member share the rate of whatever seedling shopping he does this season. So that others can have an idea.

Thats the idea Farhan.It may differ from place to place but we could have an idea.I was reading some seniors post that a nursery man sold a plant to someone @Rs 500 while the same was available freely at shalimar bagh.
It would help many if members add their shopping here.
@umarkhan you are right.Nurseries at Hayatabad are very expensive and also they lack the variety.Only few seasonal things are available.
My shopping of the last week also included Freesia Bulbs @Rs 35 each from Channa Din Lahore.Have recently planted and the shoots have emerged.

Good idea, I fully support it. All members are requested to share the details of their purchases for benefit of others..
