Household budgets are set to face higher expenses just ahead of the festive celebrations as leading dairy brand Amul has revised the retail prices of its popular dairy products. The company has increased the market rates for both ghee and butter, impacting domestic consumers as well as commercial sweetmakers preparing for the festive peak.
Ghee Prices Jump by Rs 50 per Kilogram
Under the revised pricing structure, the retail price for a 1 kg pack of Amul ghee has been raised from Rs 630 to Rs 680. This flat hike of Rs 50 per kilogram directly affects one of the highest-selling staples used extensively in festive sweets, traditional cooking, and puja preparations during this period.
Table Butter Rates Revised Upward
Alongside ghee, the daily breakfast staple has also seen an upward price revision across stores. The standard 100-gram pack of Amul butter, which previously retailed at Rs 63, will now cost consumers Rs 66. This Rs 3 increase per unit adds to the grocery expenses for regular consumers and commercial food outlets relying on bulk supplies.
