Edible oils recovered on the oils and oilseeds market, during the past week, on emergence of buying by vanaspati mills and retailers, driven by ongoing wedding season amid a firming global trend.
Restricted arrivals from producing belts also supported the recovery in edible oil prices.
However, a few oils in the non-edible section remained under pressure and shed further grounds due to sluggish demand from consuming industries.
Traders said fresh buying by vanaspati millers and retailers to meet the ongoing marriage season demand and reports of a firming trend in global markets led to the recovery in the wholesale edible oil prices.
Meanwhile, palm oil gained 2.1% this month on the Malaysia Derivatives Exchange.
In the national capital, groundnut mill delivery oil (Gujarat) and mustard expeller (Dadri) oils recovered by Rs 50 each to Rs 11,600 and Rs 8,400 per quintal, respectively, on pick up in demand from retailers.
