"The group turnover of GCMMF and its constituent member unions, representing consolidated turnover of all products sold under Amul brand is exceeding Rs 52,000 crore or USD 7 billion. GCMMF aims to achieve a group business turnover of Rs 1 lakh crore by 2024-25," it said in a statement after the 42nd AGM held at Anand.


The consolidated turnover of the Amul brand of products exceeded Rs 52,000 crore during 2019-20, the Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF), which sells and produces Amul products, said on Saturday. The federation said it aims to achieve a group business turnover of Rs 1 lakh crore by 2024-25.

"The group turnover of GCMMF and its constituent member unions, representing consolidated turnover of all products sold under Amul brand is exceeding Rs 52,000 crore or USD 7 billion. GCMMF aims to achieve a group business turnover of Rs 1 lakh crore by 2024-25," it said in a statement after the 42nd AGM held at Anand.


The GCMMF said it registered a sales turnover of Rs 38,542 crore in 2019-20, which is 17 per cent higher than the previous financial year.

A rapid expansion has helped Amul record a turnover almost five times higher than Rs 8,005 crore in 2009-10, it said.

Daily milk procurement was 215.96 lakh litre per day in 2019-20, GCMMF said, quoting its Chairman Ramsinh Parmar.

"This enormous growth was a result of the high milk procurement price paid to our farmer-members which has increased by 127 per cent, from Rs 337 per kg fat in the year 2009-10 to Rs 765 per kg fat in the year 2019-20," the GCMMF said quoting Parmar.

Parmar further said that during lockdown, when private milk firms stopped procuring from farmers, milk unions of Gujarat procured an additional 35 lakh litres of milk per day, giving around Rs 800 crore extra to the rural milk producers.

India continues to be the world's largest producer of milk, and is likely to retain its prime position with an annual growth rate of 5.5 per cent during the last three to four years as against global growth of 2 per cent, GCMMF Vice Chairman Jethabhai Bharwad said.

GCMMF Managing Director RS Sodhi said the Rs 15,000 crore dairy infrastructure fund announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman for setting up supply chain and dairy plants will help Indian dairy industry to build around 4 to 5 crore litres of extra capacity.

"These extra five crore litres of milk collected and processed by the organised dairy industry will provide livelihood to approximately 30 lakh people in rural India.

Similar to 2020, D-Street is at record high ahead of Budget 2021; will history repeat itself?

  Experts are of the view that a repeat of 2020 or what happened in March might not be possible but some consolidation cannot be ruled out. Back in March when everyone wanted to write-off 2020 from their books, hope and liquidity supported markets and investor sentiment. Nobody thought that after touching a 3-year low in March 2020, benchmark indices would give double-digit returns by the end of the year. The S&P BSE Sensex and Nifty50 rallied by about 15 percent in 2020 and the big outperformance came from the small and midcap stocks. The rally is still continuing in 2021. The S&P BSE Sensex, which climbed Mount 49K, is up over 3 percent while the Nifty50 is up over 4 percent so far in January. Sensex scaling the 49,000-mark and Nifty50 touching 14,500 levels ahead of the Budget 2021 could make anyone cautious about the strength of the rally. Back in January 2020, both Sensex and Nifty touched fresh highs ahead of Budget, and then the market fell like a pack of cards. The ...
