Palmolein oils weaken on sluggish demand
Press Trust of India New Delhi Palmolein oil prices declined by up to Rs 50 per quintal at the the wholesale oils and oilseeds market today owing to slackened demand from retailers against adequate stocks.
However, other edible and non-edible oils settled around previous levels after trading in a narrow range.
Marketmen said easing demand from retailers against sufficient stocks mainly led to decline in palmolein oil prices.
