Indian palm oil imports fell to their lowest level in 14 months in June.

Indian palm oil imports totaled 492,000 tons in June, a 10.5% drop compared to May and the lowest level since April 2025, according to data published today (2) by Reuters, citing estimates from five traders familiar with the matter. India imported 381,000 tons of soybean oil last month, a 23% decrease compared to May, and 244,000 tons of sunflower oil, a monthly decrease of 17.5%. If the traders' projections are confirmed, India's total edible oil imports fell 16.6% from May to June, to 1.1 million tons. Data from the Solvent Extractors Association of India (SEA), considered official by the market, are expected to be released by mid-July. India imports most of its palm oil needs from Indonesia and Malaysia, while soybean oil and sunflower oil are mainly imported from Argentina, Brazil, Russia, and Ukraine.
