Mustard oil remains weak on higher supply
Press Trust of India New Delhi Mustard oil prices fell by Rs 100 per quintal at the wholesale oils and oilseeds market today on increased supplies from producing belts against lower demand.
However, other edible and non-edible oils moved in a tight range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said adequate stocks in the market on higher supplies from producing belts against subdued demand mainly kept pressure on mustard oil prices.
In the national capital, mustard expeller (Dadri) oil shed another Rs 100 to close at Rs 7,200 per quintal.
