NEW DELHI, May 8: Amid pick up in spot demand and fall in supplies from producing regions, crude palm oil prices rose by 0.46 per cent to Rs 549.60 per 10 kg in futures trading today.
At the Multi Commodity Exchange, crude palm oil for delivery in June moved up by Rs 2.50, or 0.46 per cent to Rs 549.60 per 10 kg in business turnover of 53 lots.
In a similar fashion, the oil for delivery in May edged up by Rs 2.10, or 0.38 per cent to Rs 552.50 per 10 kg in 52 lots.
