In restricted activity, mustard oil traded lower by Rs 20 per quintal in the wholesale oils and oilseeds market today due to sluggish demand from local parties.
Elsewhere, prices of other edible oils continued to move in a narrow range in the absence of worthwhile activity and settled around previous closing.
Traders said lack of buying support against adequate stocks mainly led to the fall in mustard oil prices.
In the national capital, mustard expeller oil (Dadri) declined by Rs 20 to Rs 6,000 per quintal.
