Mother Dairy will be raising milk prices by Rs 2, according to NDTV. The new prices will come into effect in Delhi-NCR from May 14 onwards.
The reason cited by the company was that the cost of procuring milk from farmers has risen by approximately 6% over the past year, warranting their price revision.

In an official statement, Mother Dairy also noted that 75–80% of the revenue generated from its milk sales is spent on farmers and milk procurement.
