Refined soya oil prices further fell 0.50 per cent to Rs 761 per 10 kg in futures market today as speculators engaged in trimming positions, driven by easing demand in the spot market.

Besides, adequate ample stocks on increased supplies from producing regions, fuelled the downtrend.

Similarly, the oil for delivery in May moved down by Rs 3.65, or 0.47 per cent, to Rs 765.80 per 10 kg in 58,800 lots.
