Mother Dairy raises milk prices by ₹2-4 per litre, effective November 12

Mother Dairy, the largest milk supplier in the Delhi-NCR region, announced that it will raise the price of its milk by two to four rupees per litre. The new rates will take effect on 12 November. The company last revised its prices on 14 May 2026, and before that it had made an adjustment in April 2025. The announcement was made through a press release that detailed the new price ranges for different product categories.

The company also noted that it has been working to keep prices stable for consumers.

Consumers in the Delhi-NCR area are likely to feel the impact of the price increase, especially families that rely on milk as a staple food.

The government may monitor the situation to ensure that the increase does not lead to a sharp rise in inflation.
