NEW DELHI, Sept 3: Weak conditions emerged at the oils and oilseeds market during the week with prices of edible oil drifted lower owing to slackened demand from vanaspati millers as well as retailers against increased arrivals from growing belts.
Linseed oil, in the non-edible section, also softened due to reduced offtake by consuming industries.
Traders said apart from a fall in demand from retailers and vanaspati millers, adequate stocks position on increased supplies from producing regions mainly kept pressure on edible oil prices.
