NEW DELHI: The Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF) on Wednesday said that the prices of Amul milk will be increased by Rs 2 per liter across all brands from July 1. RS Sodhi, managing director of GCMMF, which markets milk and dairy products under the Amul brand name, said the price hike is being done after almost a year and seven months, which was necessitated due to increase in cost of production.
