In a move that is likely to impact millions of consumers, Mother Dairy has announced an increase in milk prices across Delhi-NCR. Effective immediately, the price of milk will rise by up to Rs 4 per litre. The decision comes amidst rising input costs and logistical challenges faced by the dairy cooperative.
The hike affects all varieties of Mother Dairy's milk, including toned, full cream, and double toned milk. This is the second price increase in six months, suggesting that consumers may face continued price pressure in the future.
Mother Dairy, one of India's leading dairy cooperatives, has attributed the price rise to a surge in input costs such as fodder, feed, and transportation expenses. The company reportedly aims to mitigate these costs and maintain its operations during these challenging times.
The new prices will be implemented across all authorized Mother Dairy outlets in Delhi-NCR, including Safal, Nanha, and Mother Dairy's own outlets. Consumers are advised to check the revised rates at their nearest outlet before making a purchase. This is a developing story and further updates will be provided as they become available.
