India's May palm oil imports surge 84% m/m to hit six-month high

India's palm oil imports surged to a six-month peak in May, driven by attractive pricing compared to soyoil and sunflower oil, alongside dwindling inventories. This surge propelled overall vegetable oil imports to 1.19 million tons, the highest since December. Anticipated increased palm oil imports in June, potentially reaching 850,000 tons, are expected due to the continued price advantage.
