Market Dynamics

a. Key Drivers

1. Rising Population & Urbanization:
   Increased per capita consumption (from 15 kg in 2012–13 to 19 kg in 2015–16) reflects growing dietary and lifestyle shifts.

2. Health-Conscious Consumers:
   Preference for oils like sunflower, soybean, and rice bran due to low cholesterol and heart-health benefits.

3. Diversified Oil Usage:
   Different regions in India exhibit strong cultural preferences—

b. Restraints

1. High Import Dependence:
   India imports ~56% of edible oils, mainly palm (54%), soya (21%), and sunflower (16%). This makes pricing sensitive to global commodity markets.

   Global palm and soybean oil price fluctuations impact domestic inflation.

3. High Processing Costs:
   The cost of refining and fortification adds to consumer prices.
