With an investment Rs 450 crores, Amul dedicates India’s largest dairy to NCR
- Shri Sharad Pawar inaugurated the Dudhmotisagar Dairy that has a capacity of 30 lac litres per day
Shri Sharad Pawar, Hon. Minister of Agriculture and Food Processing, Government of India inaugurated Dudhmotisagar Dairy, India’s largest dairy with a capacity of 30 lac litre per day at Dharuhera, Haryana on 24th October 2012. Shri Bhupinder Singh Hooda, Hon. Chief Minister of Haryana was the Chief Guest at the function presided over by Shri Vipul Chaudhary, Chairman, Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation and Mehsana District Cooperative Milk Producers Union Limited. Over 3000 milk producers of Mehsana district, Gujarat attended the function.
The dairy plant has been set up by India’s largest dairy cooperative Mehsana District Cooperative Milk Producers Union for processing and packing Amul Milk, Dahi, Buttermilk and other fresh products for the consumers in the National Capital Region (NCR) of Delhi.
Speaking at the inauguration, Shri Vipul Chaudhary said, “We are confident that the new facility will further strengthen Amul’s stronghold in the domestic dairy market. It will be a major boost for the consumers in the fast growing milk market of NCR.”
Amul is currently marketing 24 lac litres of milk every day in the NCR Region. It is the market leader in the pouch milk market segment. The current pouch milk market of NCR is approx 50 lac litres per day(llpd). The other players are Mother Dairy, Delhi (19 llpd), DMS (3 llpd), Vita (1.5 llpd) and private brands like Paras, Dairy Best etc (4 llpd).
The new Dudhmotisagar Dairy, Dharuhera will have a packing facility of 30 lac litres of pouch milk, 2.5 lac litres of buttermilk per day in addition to probiotic lassi, yoghurt and curd. The total investment of the plant is approx Rs 450 crores.
The new investment of Mehsana Union at Dharuhera is in addition to the current plant, Dudhmansagar dairy, with 10 lac litres per day capacity which is operational at Manesar, Haryana since 2005. It also manufactures icecreams and curd at the Manesar facility.
Mr Chaudhary added, “Amul’s own total packing capacity will touch 50 llpd by 2013. This will ensure supply of good quality pure milk to the citizens of NCR.”
NCR is world’s largest urban agglomeration by area (34,000 sq km) and 2nd largest by population. As per the National Capital Region Planning Board, the current total population of NCR is approx 500 lacs. At approx 60% urban NCR population, the milk market size of 90 lac litres per day. The NCR population is projected to grow at a very rapid rate and touch 6.5 crores by 2021. So, with 70% urbanization by 2021, the milk market size of NCR will grow to 140 lac litres per day at current rate of consumption.
It may be noted that NCR as a concept was first mooted 50 years back in 1962. The Delhi Milk Scheme was commissioned in 1959 and Mother Dairy’s Patparganj plant was put up in 1974. No new large investment in a dairy plant has been done in NCR for last two decades except Mehsana Union’s Manesar plant of 10 lac litres per day capacity in 2005. Thus this new 30 lakh litres per day capacity at Dudhmotisagar Dairy will help meet the demands of the consumers in the fast growing milk market of NCR.

PM's Meeting with CMDs of major Central Public Sector Enterprises (CPSEs)
The Prime Minister met the CMDs of twenty five major Maharatna and Navaratna CPSEs. These enterprises account for a large proportion of the India's market capitalization, organized sector employment and are a major contributor to India’s economic growth.
After hearing the views of the CMDs, the Minister for Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, The Finance Minister and the Deputy Chairman of Planning Commission, the Prime Minister spoke about the importance of the Central Public Sector Enterprises to the processes of nation building. The Prime Minister noted that the Public Sector Enterprises were instruments for bringing India back into reckoning as one of the great economies of the world. The Prime Minister said:" We cannot be satisfied with the status quo. Our growth should be maintained at the level of 8 to 8.5 percent regardless of what happens in the world economy. We must learn to swim and swim fast enough whatever be the circumstances."
The PM spoke of the contributions of the CPSEs to our economy today. They contribute over 6% of our GDP and their profits are at a record levels of almost Rs 1,00,000 crore. They have helped in transforming hitherto backward regions into modern hubs of industry and prosperity. The Prime Minister told the gathering: "Even if the international demand is not there, domestic demand should drive the investment and our endeavours".
The need of the times, the PM emphasized, is to be ready for the challenges of the future. Today, CPSEsface competition from not just domestic private enterprise but also from global corporations. As one of the biggest emerging global economies, India is an important destination for all Multi-National Corporations and competition will intensify in future. The PM therefore strongly urged them to focus on increasing the efficiency of operations, aim for achieving world-class competencies. He spoke of the need to commit to innovations in technology, human resources and create a culture of optimism.
Drawing attention to the large cash surpluses of CPSEs, the PM asked the CPSEs to use that surplus for their own benefit and the benefit of the economy. They should use it for driving investment, growth and jobs. Investing such cash surplus would help in re-igniting the growth impulses that are present in the economy.The Prime Minister noted that the investment rate in the country had declined due to recent slowdown, which should be increased to 36% to 37% to achieve 8 percent growth.
The Prime Minister said that he had noted the need for improving coordination in expediting project clearances and for generating an appropriate long term vision. He asked the Minister of Heavy Industry & Public Enterprises and the Department of Public Enterprises to work with the Finance Ministry, Planning Commission and the National Manufacturing Competitiveness Council towards addressing these issues. “We are a government determined to overcome difficulties in the spirit of national enterprise", the Prime Minister concluded.
