Soyabean and mustard oil prices rose by up to Rs 150 per quintal at the wholesale oils and oilseeds market today on stockists' buying following uptick in demand from retailers against restricted supplies from producing belts.
However, groundnut oil prices ended lower on reduced offtake by stockists.
Elsewhere, non-edible oils held steady in thin trade.
Traders said stockists' buying, driven by pick-up in demand from retailers against restricted supplies from producing belts, mainly led to the rise in soyabean oil and mustard oil prices.
