At the Multi Commodity Exchange, crude palm oil for delivery in January next year moved up by Rs 2.60, or 0.59 per cent, to Rs 446.90 per 10 kg in a business turnover of 206 lots.
Similarly, the oil for delivery in December edged higher by Rs 2.10, or 0.48 per cent, to Rs 439.80 per 10 kg in 418 lots.
Analysts said fresh positions built up by participants, driven by pick-up in demand in the spot market against tight supplies from producing belts, mainly led to the rise in crude palm oil prices at futures trade.
