Mother Dairy to pass 100% GST benefit; cuts prices on milk, paneer, butter, ghee and Safal foods

Mother Dairy on Tuesday, September 16, said it will pass on 100% GST reduction benefits to consumers and most of its products including value-added dairy products and processed foods (under Safal brand) will become cheaper with effect from September 22.

Mother Dairy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of National Dairy Development Board (NDDB), said that prices of paneer (200 gms) will come down from ₹95 to ₹92, Ghee Carton Pack (1 litre) from ₹675 to ₹645, and butter 100 gm from ₹62 to ₹58.

Similarly, the prices of various other products including Cassatta Ice Cream, pickles, tomato puree and Safal Frozen French Fries too will come down.

As part of the reform process, the GST Council has introduced only 5 and 28% slabs instead of four earlier. As a result the GST rate of over 350 items will come down.

Here is the complete list of products with their old and new prices, after the GST rate cut.

Mother Dairy on 4 September said it will pass on the benefits of the reduction in GST on a wide range of products to consumers.

Mother Dairy is one of the leading dairy firms in the country. It clocked a turnover of ₹17,500 crore in the last fiscal year.

Reacting to the decision of the GST Council, Manish Bandlish, Managing Director of Mother Dairy, said, "The recent GST reduction across a wide range of dairy and processed food products represents a progressive step that will significantly boost consumption and accelerate the adoption of safe, high-quality packaged offerings.”

"As a consumer-centric organisation, we are passing on 100 per cent of the tax benefit to our patrons, effective September 22, 2025, keeping up with the spirit of this reform. We are confident this measure will positively impact the entire value chain: farmers will benefit from increased demand for packaged food products, further supported by GST reductions on farm equipment and allied components, while consumers will gain from affordable pricing and greater access to packaged dairy and processed foods,” he added.
