Sesame oil prices dropped by Rs 200 per quintal in an otherwise steady wholesale oils and oilseeds market today on lack of buying support from vanaspati millers.
Linseed oil in the non-edible section also eased on reduced offtake by consuming industries.
Traders said slackened buying support from vanaspati millers against adequate supply from producing regions that mainly pulled down sesame oil prices.
In the national capital, sesame mill delivery oil fell by Rs 200 to Rs 11,200 per quintal.
Among non-edible, linseed oil declined by Rs 50 to Rs 7,600 per quintal.
