This is the first price revision under the leadership of Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay's TVK-led government. The new prices will take effect on October 28. The price of a 100-ml pack of Aavin ghee has been raised from ₹80 to ₹95, while a 200-ml pack will now cost ₹180, up from ₹160.

Similarly, butter prices have also seen an increase, with a 100-gram pack now priced at ₹70 instead of ₹60. These changes are a response to the rising costs of raw materials, procurement, and other associated expenses.
