In restricted activity, palmolein oil prices firmed up by Rs 50 per quintal at the wholesale oil and oilseed market today on scattered buying by vanaspati millers.
However, other edible and non-edible oils moved in a tight range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said increased buying by vanaspati millers mainly led to the rise in palmolein oil prices.
