New Delhi, August 8 (Commoditiescontrol): Mentha oil prices continued their downward trend on Thursday, pressured by sluggish demand from export markets. The bearish sentiment dominated both physical and futures markets, contributing to a noticeable decline in prices.

In the physical markets, mentha oil prices fell by Rs 5 to trade between Rs 1015-1017 per kg in Chandausi. Similarly, in Barabanki, prices dropped by Rs 7, reaching Rs 970 per kg.
