Consumers across the country will have to pay more for milk from Thursday as leading dairy brands Amul and Mother Dairy have increased prices by Rs 2-4 per litre across their liquid milk variants, citing rising input and operational costs.
The Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF), which markets dairy products under the Amul brand, announced a 4-5 per cent increase in fresh pouch milk prices across major variants and pack sizes nationwide.
Amul has raised the price of its largest-selling Taaza toned milk by Rs 2 per litre, while Amul Gold will cost Rs 4 more per litre. The increase marks the brand’s second milk price revision this year, following an earlier hike in May.
GCMMF said the price of Amul Taaza, containing 3 per cent milk fat, had increased by 3.3 per cent, while Amul Gold, with 6 per cent milk fat, had become costlier by 5.5 per cent.
Meanwhile, Mother Dairy has also revised prices by Rs 2-4 per litre across its liquid milk range, effective November 12, 2026.
Mother Dairy cited a 20 per cent rise in fodder prices, 10 per cent increase in cattle feed costs and higher packaging and transport expenses.
It said rising operational costs had necessitated the price revision, adding to household expenses.
