Amul raises milk prices for 3rd time this year as India battles rising inflation ahead of Diwali

Crops have been hit along with green fodder supplies. The impact of this on cattle farms is most likely responsible for Amul increasing milk prices, just ahead of the festive season. This is Amul’s third hike this year, but Gujarat will be exempted from it, as full cream milk will now be available for Rs 63 per litre instead of Rs 61. The cooperative’s price rise comes after a similar hike was introduced in August.
