Mother Dairy, a prominent milk supplier, is targeting a 13% increase in its turnover to ₹17,000 crore this fiscal year. The company foresees an uptick in demand for its dairy and edible oils products. "As we mark our 50th anniversary, we crossed a milestone revenue of ₹15,000 crore in the last fiscal year," said Mother Dairy's Managing Director Manish Bandlish. He also noted that the company has experienced consistent growth with revenues surging over 40% in the past three years.
Summer-led categories boost growth
The 2024-25 fiscal year has started on a promising note for Mother Dairy, with categories like ice creams, curds, and dairy beverages collectively growing by over 40% in volume terms. "As we progress into the current fiscal year, we are confident in accelerating our growth momentum, expecting to add another ₹1,500 to 2,000 crore," Bandlish stated.

"This year, we are focused on strengthening our national presence, with enhanced distribution, augmented capacities, and bolstering our portfolio with new launches to excite the consumers," Bandlish outlined. The company plans to introduce new goods focusing on fermented dairy, sweets and cheese among others.
