Palmolein oil declined by Rs 50 per quintal in an otherwise steady wholesale oils and oilseeds market today owing to slackened demand from retailers.
However, other edible and non-edible oils continued to move in a limited range in the absence of any worthwhile activity and closed at previous levels.
Traders said sluggish demand from retailers against adequate stocks mainly led to fall in palmolein oil prices.
In the national capital, palmolein (rbd) and Palmolein (Kandla) oils enquired lower by Rs 50 each to Rs 5,550 and Rs 5,450 per quintal, respectively.
