Mustard oil trades lower on subdued demand

Mustard oil prices drifted by Rs 50 per quintal in an otherwise steady wholesale oils and oilseeds market today on slackened demand from local parties against adequate stocks position.
However, other edible and non-edible oils moved in a tight range in limited deals and settled around previous levels.
Traders said subdued demand against adequate stocks position mainly led to the decline in mustard oil prices.
In the national capital, mustard expeller (Dadri) oil declined by Rs 50 to Rs 7,100 per quintal.
