# Malaysia end-Sept palm oil stocks mark first gain in 7 months | Financial Post

> Malaysian palm oil inventories rose 9.3% in September from August to 2.4 million tonnes, the first monthly gain in seven months and the highest in five months. September output rose 1.2% to 1.8 million tonnes but was below expectations, while exports fell 18.8% on lower Indian demand after India raised its refined palm oil tax.
