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.
Mother Dairy has 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, a 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.
