Edible Oil Imports Rise 22 percent To Rs 1.61 Lakh Crore In 2024-25 Marketing Year; Volume Remains Steady: SEA
India imported 16 million tonnes of edible oils worth nearly Rs 1.61 lakh crore during the 2024-25 marketing year ending in October to meet domestic demand, according to the industry group SEA. In the 2023-24 marketing year (November-October), India's edible oil imports were 15.96 million tonnes valued at Rs 1.32 lakh crore, as per data from the Solvent Extractors' Association of India (SEA) released on Thursday.
The value of edible oil imports increased by 22 percent due to higher global prices. India imports palm oil from Indonesia and Malaysia, while soybean oil comes from Argentina and Brazil. “To meet the gap between supply and demand, India has been importing edible oils since the 1990s. Initially, the import volume was very low. However, in the last 20 years (2004-05 to 2024-25), the import volume has grown by 2.2 times, while the cost has increased nearly 15 times," the association said.
