At the Multi Commodity Exchange, crude palm oil for delivery in August rose by Rs 3.70, or 0.76 per cent to Rs 492.70 per 10 kg in business turnover of 154 lots.
Similarly, the oil for delivery in July contracts was also edged up by 10 paise, or 0.02 per cent to Rs 488 per 10 kg in 18 lots.
Analysts said fresh positions created by participants due to pick-up in demand in the physical markets against restricted supplies from producing regions mainly led to the rise in palm oil prices at futures trade.
