Mother Dairy, Amul hike milk prices: How much will buffalo milk, cow milk, toned and other variants cost you now?

From Thursday morning, everyday essentials like the morning cup of tea, children’s breakfast and one of the most important kitchen staples has become more expensive as India’s leading dairy brands, Amul and Mother Dairy, implement fresh milk price hikes across the country amid rising production and operational costs.

The increase is expected to further strain household budgets at a time when families are already grappling with soaring living expenses triggered by the fuel crisis linked to the ongoing Middle-East conflict.
