Amul has raised the prices of its milk products across India, with increases of up to Rs 4 per litre depending on the variant and region. The price adjustment marks another upward revision in the cost of essential dairy products for Indian households.
The cooperative attributed the increase to various cost pressures affecting milk production and distribution. Rising input costs, including animal feed and operational expenses, have necessitated the revision to maintain service sustainability across its vast supply network.
The price hike affects multiple milk variants across different states where Amul operates. Retailers and consumers have been notified of the changes, which take effect at designated periods across different regions.
Amul remains the dominant player in India's organised dairy sector, serving millions of households daily. The price adjustment is likely to influence milk pricing across the broader market, as Amul's decisions often set benchmarks for other dairy producers operating in the country.
