Mumbai Milk Producers Announce Rs 9 Per Litre Price Increase from September 1
Mumbai's milk producers have announced a Rs 9 per litre increase in the wholesale price of buffalo milk, raising it from Rs 93 to Rs 102 effective September 1, 2026. The hike is attributed to rising costs of milch animals, cattle feed, and fodder, with some feed prices increasing by up to 25%. This is the largest recent increase and follows earlier statewide price revisions. Retail prices are expected to rise accordingly, with the new rates set for review on February 28, 2027.
