Mustard oil prices drifted by Rs 75 per quintal at the wholesale oils and oilseeds market today on muted demand from local parties.
However, other edible and non-edible oils continued to trade in a narrow range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said sluggish demand from local parties against sufficient stocks led to the fall in mustard oil prices.
In the national capital, mustard expeller (Dadri) oil declined by Rs 75 to Rs 8,200 per quintal.
