Mother Dairy to hike milk prices by Rs 2 per litre starting tomorrow; Check new prices

Mother Dairy, one of India's leading state-owned milk suppliers, announced on Tuesday a hike in liquid milk prices by up to Rs 2 per litre, effective Wednesday, April 30.

The revised prices will go into effect from Wednesday in Delhi NCR, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Uttarakhand, according to the company's notification.

The company said the price revision has been necessitated due to a sharp increase in procurement costs, which have risen by Rs 4–Rs 5 per litre over the past few months.


A spokesperson for Mother Dairy explained that the surge in procurement prices is primarily due to the early onset of summer and prevailing heatwave conditions, which have impacted milk production and supply.

The revised prices will be applicable across all markets where Mother Dairy operates.
