Aavin dairy production and pricing in Tamil Nadu
Overview
Aavin management recently denied reports claiming that production of over 100 dairy products had been halted. Following criticisms from PMK leader Anbumani Ramadoss regarding potential reductions in items like milk powder and chocolates, the organization clarified that production of ghee, butter, paneer, and cookies continues as usual to meet consumer demand for the Diwali festival.
Shortly after these denials, Aavin announced price increases for 63 products, including ghee, butter, curd, and sweets, effective October 28, 2026. The cooperative cited rising raw material and production costs as the reason for the revision. This move drew criticism from AIADMK General Secretary Edappadi Palaniswami, who accused the government of prioritizing profit during the festive season.
