Surge in Palm Oil Demand in India
India saw a sharp rise in palm oil demand in April 2025 after five months of weak activity. The surge occurred due to a drop in prices and better import margins. As prices fell, businesses and consumers in India increased their palm oil purchases, driving the market’s recovery. This rise in demand marks a significant rebound for the local palm oil industry.
India’s position as one of the world’s largest palm oil importers makes this demand increase a notable development in the global palm oil market. Analysts predict that this uptrend will continue, influencing market trends and pricing strategies globally.
