Amul has implemented price increases ranging from Rs 2 to Rs 4 per litre across its fresh pouch milk range, effective November 12. The adjustment impacts the cooperative's portfolio of milk products sold across India.
The dairy cooperative attributed the price revision to elevated input costs and expenses related to milk processing. These factors have placed upward pressure on production economics across the sector in recent months.
Amul's Gold and Taaza variants, among the cooperative's most widely consumed offerings, are included in the price adjustment. The tiered increase suggests differentiation across the product range based on production specifications and market positioning.
The price revision follows similar moves by other dairy operators navigating inflationary pressures. Amul, which supplies milk and dairy products to millions of Indian households, has historically adjusted prices based on cost pressures and commodity fluctuations.
Consumers can expect the new pricing to take effect immediately following November 12 at retail outlets, including milk booths, supermarkets and online delivery platforms across the country.
