message: delete 'though possibly of a lower or "less-pure" status' because oil has been used for domestic (eating, massaging, putting on hair, applying on body), for medicinal use and also for ceremonial purpose (lighting deepak for worshiping god, using at temple, applying on god like Hanuman etc) by every hindu caste along with brahaman so the producer of oil cannot be considered as low status, moreover in early India nothing from a lower caste been eaten by brahman and specially liquid and for using for worshiping. This proves that teli was not considered of less-pure status.

message: Teli belongs to vaisya community who are known as Sahukar or Bankers whereas Baniyas are known as Halwayi community in vaisya. In 20th century most baniyas started using bankers and business class surname such as Gupta, Bansal etc whereas they use surnames ending with "wal" and don't represent business community in vaisya.

message: Hello  this edit appears shady, which is exacerbated by the edit summary. I assume you had constructed a house of cards there, synthesizing stuff to achieve the desired result. For the time being, I have reverted . Please feel free to provide relevant quotes from credible sources on the article talk page in order to garner consensus to reinstate. Obviously, Fischel and Hasnain are reliable, while others may not be (People of India by KS Singh does not meet RS). Thanks. Dr.Pinsky (talk) 19:05, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
