Milk gets costlier: Amul, Parag Milk Foods follow Mother Dairy with ₹2/Litre hike
New Delhi: Leading dairy players Amul and Parag Milk Foods have announced a Rs 2 per litre increase in milk prices effective May 1, 2025, following a similar hike by Mother Dairy earlier this week, citing rising procurement and input costs. The Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF), which markets its products under the Amul brand, said the price hike applies across all variants of fresh pouch milk . This is Amul's first price increase since June 2024. 'Amul offered extra volume in packs and had even reduced prices in January 2025. The current revision supports our 36 lakh milk producers amidst rising production costs,' GCMMF said in a statement. Nearly 80 paise of every rupee paid by consumers goes to dairy farmers, it added. Parag Milk Foods, which sells fresh milk under the Gowardhan brand, has also revised prices by Rs 2 per litre. 'This adjustment helps us support our dairy farmers facing increased input costs, while continuing to deliver pure, fresh milk to our consumers,' said Ajay Singh Barodia, president - sales at Parag Milk Foods. Earlier, Mother Dairy revised its prices across all markets, attributing the hike to a Rs 4 - 5 per litre increase in procurement costs due to heatwave conditions and early summer onset. The company raised prices of its key variants by Rs 1 - 2 per litre across pouch and loose milk.

Major dairies raise milk prices by Rs 2 per litre in Mumbai
Mumbai: Three major milk brands, Amul, Gowardhan and Mother Dairy have all increased prices by up to Rs 2 per litre effective April 30-May 1, citing higher procurement costs. Amul has raised the rates of its standard, cow and buffalo milk as well as Taaza, Gold,.Slim n Trim and Chai Mazza variants. The company had in fact dropped the price of one-litre packs by a rupee in Jan 2025, the first decrease in living memory. This present round of hikes was led by Mother Dairy, which raised prices by up to Rs 2 on April 30 citing "early onset of summer and heatwave conditions which affected procurement". Its premium full cream milk now costs Rs 78 over Rs 76. Late evening, Parag Milk Foods increased the rate of its Gowardhan brand by Rs 2 as well. "The revision is driven by rising costs of milk procurement," said Ajay Singh Barodia, president, sales. "This adjustment helps us support our dairy farmers facing increased input costs." Gowardhan Gold cow milk which was Rs 58 earlier now costs Rs 60. Gowardhan Fresh (toned) variant was Rs 56 and is revised to Rs 58 per litre. Interestingly Mother Dairy has raised the rates of both one litre and half litre packs by one rupee in certain variants, making it cheaper to buy bigger packs. For instance, its one litre packs of full cream milk rose to Rs 69 from Rs 68 while the half litre pouch costs Rs 35 up from Rs 34. So two half litre packs cost Rs 70, making it expensive by a rupee.
