He said that the revised prices will come into effect from the morning of September 22, 2025, aligning with the Government of India\u2019s GST 2.0 reforms, which lowered tariffs on essential dairy items. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that such measures will directly benefit the people of Punjab while strengthening the state\u2019s cooperative model.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Under the new pricing, the Chief Minister said that consumers will enjoy the benefits of Verka Ghee which will be cheaper by \u20b930\u201335 per litre\/kg. He said that the price of Table Butter has been reduced by \u20b930 per kg, that of Unsalted Butter reduced by \u20b935 per kg, Processed Cheese by \u20b920 per kg, and the UHT Milk (Standard, Toned &amp; Double Toned) by \u20b92 per litre.

He said that the move will multiply the tax collections thus strengthening the state\u2019s fiscal position fostering growth, ensuring quality standards, and compliance. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that these revisions will provide much-needed relief for consumers impacted by inflation while boosting demand for organized dairy products, ensuring both consumer welfare and farmer prosperity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8211; Move aimed at the facilitating the common man (Rajinder Kumar) Chandigarh, 19 September
