Mustard oil prices softened by Rs 20 per quintal in an otherwise steady wholesale oils and oilseeds market today due to subdued demand from local parties.
However, other edible and non-edible oils moved in a narrow range on little doing and settled around previous levels.
Traders said low demand from local parties mainly helped mustard oil prices to trade lower.
In the national capital, mustard expeller (Dadri) oil traded lower by Rs 20 to Rs 7,280 per quintal.
