Prices for soybean oil have risen by Rs 4-5 per liter in a week, according to retailers in the capital.
On the other hand, the price of all types of rice has risen from four to five rupees per kg, the rice sellers said.
The general public thinks that commodity prices are rising uncontrollably due to the lack of strict market surveillance by the government.
In one week, the price of a one-liter bottle of some brands has risen from Rs four to five to Rs 114-115.
The maximum price for a two-liter bottle is Tk 228. The new price for a five-liter bottle of soybeans has been increased to Rs 550-555.
Soybean oil prices have risen twice in a month, buyers and sellers said. Retailers said that even though surplus goods have yet to reach the retail market, distributors are giving advance notice.
Khurshid Alam, a salesperson at the Marjia Store in the Kanchabazar area of Mohakhali, said that new oil had arrived at his store. Almost all companies have increased the price of bottled soybean oil by Rs 5 per liter.
He told bdnews24.com: “The price of a five-liter bottle of Rupchanda brand soybean oil is now Rs 550. A month ago it was 525 rupees.

Delwar Hossain, owner of Mamata Store in Shantinagar Bazar, said: “The oil at the new price has not yet reached our store. However, the traders have raised the price a little more than the oil we would have had by 10-15 rupees. So we used to be able to give buyers a small discount on the price of the bottle, but now it is not possible. “
Sarwar Hossain, a resident of the Malibagh Hajipara area of Rampura Bazar, told bdnews24.com: “The prices of daily commodities, including oil, are skyrocketing. This is because the government’s monitoring system is weak.
“People in the government go around with only what is written in the media. But the government’s responsibility is to monitor the strict position. We don’t see that.”
Citigroup, one of the largest suppliers of bottled soybean oil on the market, supplies oil under the Arrow brand.
Biswajit Saha, General Manager (GM) of Shilpa Group, told bdnews24.com: “The price of edible oil has gone up in the international market, so we have had to go up.
However, he stated that the price of oil has risen with the approval of all the companies requesting it from the Bangladesh Tariff Commission.
Meanwhile, the prices of all types of rice on the market have risen by four to five rupees per kg in one week, rice traders said.
The lowest priced coarse golden rice is sold at 50 Tk per kg in the capital’s retail market. And the narrow minicket sells for Rs 72-85.
Ali Ahsan, owner of Bikrampur Rice Store in Rampura, told bdnews24.com that the price of rice has risen from three to five rupees per kg in a week. Especially the price of coarse rice is a bit higher.
He said that a 50kg bag of Miniket rice sells for Rs 2,600 to Rs 3,000 per manvede. And the thick sacks of rice sell for Rs 2,450 to Rs 2,550.
When asked why the price of rice went up, vendor Ali Ahsan said: “The price of rice is said to have gone up in Mayale (farmers’ field). That is why the millers have raised the price of rice.
“But we can’t just sit here and tell the real story.”
Feroz Alam, owner of Messrs. Feroze Rice Store in Shantinagar Bazar, said the price of Lata / Paijam rice is Rs. Swarna rice is sold at Rs 50-65 per kg, Nazirshail at Rs 57-60 per kg and Miniket Manvede at Rs 60-65 per kg.
Wahiduzzaman, a rice warehouseman in the Mirpur-1 area of the capital, told bdnews24.com that the millers had manipulated the price. They have already bought rice from farmers and now they have increased the price of rice creating an artificial crisis.
However, the price of rice has dropped by Tk 50 per gram in one day as mobile courts have been operating in different areas since Thursday, he said.
“If the government continues its efforts, we expect the price of rice to be under control in a few days.”
