Mumbai milk prices set to rise by ₹9/litre starting September 1
The wholesale rate for milk across Mumbai and its adjoining metropolitan supply networks will leap from ₹93 per litre to ₹102 per litre.
Mumbai residents can anticipate a 9 rupee per litre increase in milk prices from September 1, 2026, according to the Bombay Milk Producers Association (BMPA). The wholesale rate will jump from 93 rupees to 102 rupees per litre, remaining in effect until February 28, 2027. This represents one of the largest single-step price hikes in recent history.
The rise in prices is attributed to increasing operational costs for dairy farmers and cattle operators, including higher prices for feed components, transportation fees, and livestock maintenance expenses. The price increase is expected to translate into higher costs for consumers, impacting local businesses such as bakeries, sweet shops, and eateries.
