Mother Dairy Increases Milk Prices by Rs 2-4 Per Litre Starting Thursday
NEW DELHI: Mother Dairy has announced a price hike for its liquid milk variants in the Delhi-NCR region, effective November 12. Consumers will see an increase of Rs 2-4 per litre, driven by rising procurement costs paid to farmers. This marks the company’s first price adjustment since May 2026, following previous increases in April 2025.
The price of full cream milk will rise by Rs 4, bringing it to Rs 76 per litre. Toned milk (bulk vended) will now cost Rs 60 per litre, up from Rs 58. Toned milk (pouched) will increase from Rs 60 to Rs 62, while double toned milk will see a rise from Rs 54 to Rs 56. Cow milk prices will also go up, from Rs 62 to Rs 65 per litre. Mother Dairy sells approximately 35 lakh litres of milk daily in the Delhi-NCR market, with total daily sales exceeding 50 lakh litres.
Mother Dairy, a subsidiary of the National Dairy Development Board, reported a 17% growth in turnover to Rs 20,300 crore in the last fiscal year, attributed to increased demand for its milk products and cooking oils. The company transfers 75-80% of its milk sales revenue to farmers.
