24/10/2013 (Hindu Business Line) - A sharp jump in Malaysian palm oil futures lifted domestic soya oil futures by over two per cent on Wednesday. However, soya oil ruled steady in the spot market.

Tracking bullish futures, palmolein gained Rs 2 for 10 kg in physical market, rapeseed oil Rs 3 and cotton refined oil Rs 5 for 10 kg each. Groundnut oil and sunflower oil were unchanged. Fear of increase in import duty on refined oil also weighed on the sentiment. Local refineries increased their rates for palmolein by Rs 5-7 on higher buying support.

An observer said that domestic soya oil futures rose sharply on delay in new arrivals and fear of damage to standing crop on account of high moisture. Normally at this time, the daily average arrival of soyabean in Madhya Pradesh is about 8-10 lakh bags but this year, it has not crossed five lakh bags.”.

Rapeseed arrivals, due to lean season period, are hovering below one lakh bags. On expectation of a bullish trend, stockists are placing fresh orders and have covered over 2,500-2,800 tonnes of palmolein, soyabean refined and other oils.
