Select edible oils remained weak with prices falling further up to Rs 100 a quintal on the oils and oilseeds market on Saturday due to subdued demand against adequate stocks positions.
Neem oil in the non-edible section also declined on reduced industrial offtake.
Traders said subdued demand against adequate supplies and reports of a weakening global trend mainly kept pressure on edible oil prices.
