Milk Price September 2026: Milk prices are set to remain in focus from today, with dairy producers citing a hike in costs of cattle feed, operating, and transport as the reason.
The biggest confirmed development comes from Mumbai, where wholesale milk prices will see a Rs 9 per litre surge from September 1. Meanwhile, Tamil Nadu has also recorded a Rs 6 per litre cumulative increase in milk procurement prices within two weeks.
Mumbai Milk Price September 2026
The wholesale milk rate in Mumbai will move from Rs 93 to Rs 102 per litre. The Bombay Milk Producers Association has announced the hike in the wholesale price of buffalo milk, effective from today. The revised structure is likely to remain in place for 6 months. However, this does not imply that packaged milk prices of major brands across the country will automatically increase by Rs 9 per litre, as it is priced separately by dairy companies.
Tamil Nadu Milk Price September 2026
Chief Minister Vijay-led Tamil Nadu government has increased the milk procurement price paid to dairy farmers. However, this does not imply that every retail milk packet will see an equivalent surge. A Rs 3 per litre rise has been announced for Aavin's milk procurement price, taking it from Rs 41 to Rs 44 per litre.
For branded milk, reported prices in Chennai after the latest revision in May included Amul Gold at around Rs 72 per litre, and Amul Cow Milk and Taaza around Rs 62 per litre.
Delhi Milk Price September 2026
Delhi's packaged milk market is largely driven by major brands like Amul and Mother Dairy, besides other dairy suppliers.
The prices can vary by brand and packet size. After May's revision, reported Delhi milk prices are:
- Full Cream Milk: around Rs 72 per litre
- Token/Bulk Vended Milk: around Rs 54-58 per litre
- Toned Milk: around Rs 60 per litre
- Double Toned Milk: around Rs 54 per litre
