The Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF) has decided to hike the prices of Amul brand milk by up to Rs 2 per litre in Delhi and National Capital Region from tomorrow.
“Amul Taaza (toned) milk will cost Rs 30 per litre from tomorrow in Delhi and NCR compared with Rs 29 per litre, while slim and trim shall cost Rs 26 per litre in the place of Rs 25, and Amul Gold (full cream) will be Rs 40 per litre against Rs 38 per litre,” the Federation’s Managing Director, Mr R.S. Sodhi told, PTI.
A similar hike was effected by the dairy major in Mumbai on April 11.
The GCMMF, which markets its products under brand ‘Amul’, had already increased the prices at almost the same levels in Gujarat on April 10.
Citing rising cost of production as the major reason behind the hike, Mr Sodhi said expenses on milk production have gone up for farmers and GCMMF has also hiked the procurement price.
GCMMF supplies nearly 20 lakh litres of milk per day in Delhi and NCR. It is the second largest milk supplier in the region after Mother Dairy.
