Mother Dairy reports over 30% growth in summer products (ice cream, buttermilk, curd) driven by heatwave demand. Plans high-protein, low-sugar launches; no near-term price hikes. Launches naturally degradable milk pouch in Delhi-NCR from June 5.
Why this matters
Volume momentum supports Mother Dairy's Rs 24,000 cr FY27 target and 5% volume growth ambition, while pricing restraint aligns with its earlier ruling out of further milk hikes citing comfortable supply.
