Select edible oil prices rose by Rs 50 per quintal at the wholesale oils and oilseeds market today on the back of increased buying by vanaspati millers for the marriage season.
However, non-edible oils moved in a tight range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said buying by vanaspati millers to meet the ongoing wedding season demand led to rise in select edible oil prices.
In the national capital, groundnut mill delivery (Gujarat) and mustard expeller (Dadri) oils rose by Rs 50 each to Rs 7,450 and Rs 7,150 per quintal, respectively.
Soyabean refined mill delivery (Indore) and soyabean degum (Kandla) oils also moved up by Rs 50 each to Rs 7,450 and Rs 7,250 per quintal, respectively.
