Milk is one of the most important part of every household in India, but this year inflation has hit milk so much that prices have to be increased 4 times. The last hike happened last week only. Meanwhile, the country’s largest milk distributor Amul (Amul Milk) has spoken of great relief for the people. According to the company, there is currently no plan to increase the prices of Amul Doodh.

The Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF), a cooperative that markets milk under the Amul brand, has no plans to increase milk prices in the country in the near future, Managing Director (MD) RS Sodhi said. GCMMF mainly sells milk in the markets of Gujarat, Delhi-NCR, West Bengal and Mumbai. This cooperative organization sells more than 150 lakh liters of milk per day, out of which about 40 lakh liters of milk is sold in Delhi-NCR.

Mother Dairy increased the price by Rs.

Earlier this week, Mother Dairy had increased the prices of full-cream milk by Re 1 per liter and that of token milk by Rs 2 per liter in the Delhi-NCR market, citing cost escalation. Now full cream milk has become Rs 64 per liter instead of Rs 63 per litre. On the other hand tokenized milk is available at Rs 50 per liter instead of Rs 48 per litre. But there has been no revision in the price of 500 ml pack of Full Cream Milk.

no increase in cost

When asked whether the GCMMF has any plans to increase milk prices after Mother Dairy hiked milk prices, Sodhi said, “There is no plan in near future.” He added that October The cost has not increased much since the last retail price hike in 2015.

Prices were increased in October itself

In mid-October, the GCMMF increased the prices of Amul Gold (full-cream) and buffalo milk by Rs 2 per litre. This growth has happened in all other markets, except for election-bound Gujarat. Assembly elections will be held in Gujarat in early December. After this increase in the price, the price of Amul Gold has been increased from Rs 61 to Rs 63 per liter while the price of buffalo milk has been increased from Rs 63 to Rs 65 per litre.

Amul increased the price 3 times, Mother Dairy 4 times

GCMMF has increased milk prices thrice this year, while Mother Dairy has done so four times. Mother Dairy is one of the leading milk suppliers in Delhi-NCR with a sales volume of over 30 lakh liters per day. The hike in milk prices has put pressure on the household budget at a time when food inflation is already at a high level.

Mother Dairy told the reason for rising cost

Mother Dairy attributed the hike in prices to the increase in the cost of procuring raw milk from dairy farmers. Its spokesperson said, “This year, the entire dairy industry is witnessing a huge gap in demand and supply of milk.” The reason is pressure on raw milk prices. Milk production in India, the largest producer of milk in the world, is around 210 million tonnes annually.
