The Karnataka government has announced a price hike for Nandini milk, moving from ₹46 to ₹54 per litre, citing rising production costs.
The Karnataka state government has officially increased the retail price of Nandini milk from ₹46 to ₹54 per litre, a change that will take effect from the beginning of next month. The decision follows a review of the cooperative’s cost structure, with officials pointing to higher feed prices, transportation expenses and inflation as key drivers.
Nandini, the state‑run dairy cooperative, has long been a staple in households across Karnataka. The price hike is expected to impact consumers directly, with the new rate reflecting an 18.4% increase over the current price.
The government has stated that the adjustment is necessary to ensure the sustainability of the cooperative and to maintain the quality of milk supplied to the public. No additional subsidies or compensation measures have been announced at this time.
