Palmolein oil prices declined by Rs 50 per quintal in an otherwise steady wholesale oils and oilseeds market today on sluggish demand amid a weak global trend.
However, non-edible oils remained steady in restricted buying.
Marketmen said sluggish demand and a weak global trend mainly led to decline in palmolein oil prices.
Meanwhile, palm oil for March delivery lost 0.6 per cent to USD 792 a tonne on the Malaysia Derivatives Exchange.
In the national capital, palmolein (rbd) and palmolein (Kandla) oils declined by Rs 50 each at Rs 6,550 and Rs 6,150 per quintal, respectively.
