Prices of sesame and cottonseed oils rose by Rs 100 per quintal at the wholesale oils and oilseeds market today on the emergence of demand from vanaspati millers.

Linseed oil in the non-edible section, also edged up on scattered enquiries from paint units.

Traders said fresh buying by vanaspati millers to meet increased demand from retailers against restricted supplies from producing belts mainly pushed up sesame and cottonseed oil prices.

In the national capital, sesame and cottonseed mill delivery (Haryana) oils were up by Rs 100 each to Rs 9,100 and Rs 7,000 per quintal, respectively.

In the non-edible segment, linseed oil also enquired higher by Rs 100 to Rs 8,900 per quintal.
