India Edible Palm Oil & Olive Oil Market Research Report, 2027-28

While one is considered a premium product and the other is popularly the cheapest available, olive oil and palm oil are two extremely opposite products in the Indian edible oil market, catering to different sets of consumer segments. Palm oil is the oil with the lowest production costs, resulting in the lowest selling price, consumed unknowingly to the fact that it contains a proven natural substitute for hydrogenated fatty acids. Palm oil, unlike olive oil, contains about 50% saturated fats, which are responsible for an increase in cholesterol in the blood. With reference to the recently published article of Actual Market Research under the title, ‘India Edible Palm Oil & Olive Oil Market Research Report, 2027-28’, the consumption of palm oil is expected to grow at a rate of above 3%. Even though considered an expensive oil, with the increasing awareness and disposable income, the consumption of olive oil is expected to grow incredibly from below 2% in the period 2016-21 to more than 8% through the forecasted period. Despite the dissimilarities, the consumption of these oils is similar in terms of the market type. Both these oils are highly consumed from the unorganized market, which is surprising in the case of olive oil, but is backed by the availability of adulterated oil in the market at a much cheaper rate, than the branded ones. The purchase of olive oil from the online market is comparatively higher than most of the oils, owing to the discounts and easy comparison of the brands. The online market is expected to cross INR 160 Cr. While the palm oil market gets the major contribution of the sales derived from the fair price stores, the market is going to be dominated by the offline sales channel over the long period. The fact that the state government-run fair-price stores sell refined palm oil to impoverished communities at a subsidized price of 25 Rs/liter, more than a third cheaper than usual, has deteriorated the image of palm oil in minds of Indian consumers. However, this has also made the lower middle-class population habituated to the consumption of palm oil. To decrease the high import of this oil, Prime Minister Narendra Modi appealed to the farmers in the North-East States to take up oil palm cultivation in a big way, as a step to support the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative. Due to the high price of olive oil, companies started blending olive oil with other edible oil such as rice bran oil. Pure and pomace olive oil are the most popular variants, although extra virgin olive oil is gaining momentum due to its health benefits. The commercial use of palm oil is higher in comparison to any other oil which results in the frequent purchase of higher quantities. Palm oil can be stored for up to 12 months with little spoilage. This is the primary reason why the oil is used in adulteration of the expensive oils to increase the profit margin.
