Amul has hit a major milestone. The Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF), which markets the iconic dairy brand, has announced that Amul’s total brand turnover crossed Rs 1 lakh crore in the financial year 2025–26 — an 11% jump from the Rs 90,000 crore it posted the year before.
That’s not a small number for any company, let alone a cooperative built on the backs of farmers.
GCMMF itself also had a strong year. Its own sales turnover climbed to Rs 73,450 crore, up from Rs 65,911 crore in 2024–25 — a growth of about 11.4%. The federation has been calling itself India’s largest FMCG organisation for a while now, and the numbers continue to back that claim up.
So what’s driving the growth? According to the federation, it comes down to a few things: a wide product range of over 1,200 different packs, a distribution network that reaches practically every corner of the country, and the ability to keep up with what consumers actually want.
Chairman Ashok Chaudhary didn’t mince words when reacting to the news. “Crossing the Rs 1 lakh crore brand turnover is a testament to the trust of millions of consumers and the tireless hard work of our 36 lakh dairy farmers,” he said.
That farmer network is central to everything Amul does. GCMMF works through 18 member district cooperatives and represents roughly 3.6 million farmers across Gujarat. Every day, it procures around 31 million litres of milk — and over the course of a year, it ships out more than 24 billion packs of dairy products to customers in over 50 countries.
On the policy front, July 2025 saw the government launch the Sardar Patel Cooperative Dairy Federation Limited (SPCDF), a new body designed to bring dairy cooperatives from across India under one umbrella. Officials have billed it as the foundation of a “Second White Revolution” — a nod to the original revolution that put Amul on the map decades ago.
