11/05/2013 (Hindu Business Line) - Positive palm oil data from Malaysia pushed up imported palmolein and soyabean refined oil by Rs 2 and Rs 4 for 10 kg each in Mumbai on Friday. Higher arrivals of mustard seeds pulled down rapeseed oil by Re 1. Selling pressure resulted in sunflower expeller refined oil easing by Rs 10, while sunflower refined oil, groundnut oil and cotton oil ruled unchanged. Sentiments remained positive on firm Malaysian palm oil futures and weak Indian currency which made imports costly.

Ruchi sold 150-200 tonnes of palmolein at Rs 510 then increased rate by Rs 2 and sold 150-200 tonnes of soyabean refined oil at Rs 664. Liberty also sold some quantity of palmolein at Rs 505-509.
