At the Multi Commodity Exchange, crude palm oil for delivery in October eased by Rs 2.70, or 0.49 per cent, to Rs 540.80 per 10 kg, in a business turnover of 430 lots.
On similar lines, the oil for delivery in September traded lower by 0.30 paise, or 0.05 per cent, to Rs 581.80 per 10 kg in 67 lots.
Market analysts said besides profit-booking by speculators at prevailing higher levels, fall in demand in the spot market mainly influenced crude palm oil prices.
