Mother Dairy cuts MRP of Dhara cooking oils by Rs 15-20 per litre
Mother Dairy has cut maximum retail prices (MRP) of its edible oils, sold under Dhara brand, by Rs 15-20 per litre with immediate effect in line with the reduction in global prices.
The stock with revised MRP is expected to hit the market next week.
The reduction comes following the food ministry's direction to edible oil industry body SEA regarding the need for downward revision of the MRP of cooking oils.
"The MRP of Dhara edible oils are being reduced by Rs 15-20 per litre across variants with immediate effect. This reduction is largely being done in variants such as soyabean oil, ricebran oil, sunflower oil and groundnut oil, on account of reduced impact of international markets and ease in availability of domestic crop," Mother Dairy spokesperson said.
The MRP of Dhara refined soyabean oil (1 litre poly pack) has been reduced to Rs 150 from Rs 170, while the MRP of Dhara refined rice bran oil will now be Rs 170 per litre as against Rs 190 per litre earlier.
