Sesame oil traded higher by Rs 100 per quintal in lacklustre trade at the wholesale oils and oilseeds market today amid increased buying by retailers.
However, other edible and non-edible oils moved in a narrow range on alternate bouts of trading and settled around previous levels.
Marketmen said some buying by retailers to meet rising demand helped sesame oil prices to rise.
