Groundnut oil prices rose by Rs 50 per quintal in an otherwise steady wholesale oils and oilseeds market today on increased buying by retailers.
However, other edible and non-edible oils moved in a tight range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said fresh buying by retailers mainly led to the rise in groundnut oil prices.
