Select edible oil fell for the fourth straight day and prices shed up to Rs 100 per quintal on the wholesale oils and oilseeds market today on stockists selling in line with a weakening global trend.
However, non-edible oils held steady in restricted deals.
Marketmen said stockists selling in line with a weakening global trend mainly kept pressure on select edible oil prices.
