Mother Dairy increases milk prices in Delhi-NCR by Rs 2-4 per litre
The price hike for liquid milk variants comes due to rising procurement costs paid to farmers, according to reports.
Mother Dairy has increased the prices of its liquid milk variants by Rs 2-4 per litre in Delhi-NCR, effective from Thursday, November 12, according to reports from Times of India and Moneycontrol. The company is adjusting consumer rates because the cost of buying milk from farmers has risen.
The price of pouched full cream milk has increased by Rs 4, moving from Rs 72 to Rs 76 per litre. Toned milk (pouched) now costs Rs 62 per litre, up from Rs 60, while bulk vended toned milk has risen from Rs 58 to Rs 60 per litre. Cow milk prices have increased from Rs 62 to Rs 65 per litre, and double toned milk has gone from Rs 54 to Rs 56 per litre.
Sources stated that the company is sharing some of the higher input costs with consumers. Mother Dairy currently transfers 75-80 per cent of its milk sales realisation to farmers. A spokesperson for the company declined to comment on the revision.
The dairy major, which is a subsidiary of the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB), sells approximately 35 lakh litres of milk daily in the Delhi-NCR region. Its total daily sales exceed 50 lakh litres. This follows a previous price increase on May 14, 2026.
In the last fiscal year, the company saw its turnover grow by 17 per cent to Rs 20,300 crore. Mother Dairy also operates brands such as Dhara for edible oils and Safal for fruits and vegetables.
