The benchmark FCPO1 palm oil contract for April delivery on Bursa Malaysia rose shed 0.79%, to close at 4,018 ringgit per metric tonne. The counter had lost 2.5% in last week. Markets are eying Indian import trends. India’s January palm oil imports rose 51% from the previous month, hitting a four-month high. However, soybean oil imports fell to a 19-month low and markets grew concerned about the pace of imports in near term as rabi oilseeds crop is about to hit the local markets in India.
