Mustard oil gains on pick-up in demand

Mustard oil prices rose by Rs 100 per quintal at the wholesale oils and oilseeds market today due to pick-up in demand from local parties.
However, other edible and non-edible oils moved in a narrow range on scattered buying and settled around previous levels.
Traders said besides pick-up in demand from local parties, restricted supplies from producing belts mainly led to the rise in mustard oil prices.
In the national capital, mustard expeller (Dadri) oil gained Rs 100 to Rs 7,450 per quintal.
