<ul><li>The decades-old practice of getting milk delivered to the doorstep is a big reason. </li><li>Dairy companies spend between 1-2% of sales in advertisements, which is far less compared to other consumer staples companies. </li><li>This is a huge advantage for branded milk sellers at a time when consumers are moving away from unorganised local vendors. </li></ul>Do you get your milk delivered to your doorstep every morning? There is a good chance that you do not have up-to-date information on other brands of milk, competing prices and offers, if any, which may be available. Consumers are less likely to frequently shift from one dairy brand to another because of this decades-old practice. This has also meant that dairy companies in India have had to spend very little on advertisements and promotions.

 An urban consumer in India spends 20.3% of the monthly spend on milk and milk products, according to a survey by the National Sample Survey Organisation released in 2012. Milk is a staple and there is big money to be made in the segment. And yet, dairy companies spend only 1-2% of sales on advertisements, compared to online marketplace Flipkart, which <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/services/advertising/at-30-of-annual-revenues-flipkart-spends-thrice-as-much-on-ads-as-hul/articleshow/66611156.cms">reportedly</a> spends over 30% of its revenue. While Hindustan Unilever spends about 10% of its sales. “An effective advertisement of soap can win new consumers and additional revenues of ₹20 per new consumer per month whereas an advertisement of dairy brand can win revenues of ₹1,000 per new consumer per month,” an <keyword id="7442614" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="ICICI-Securities-report">ICICI Securities report</keyword> explained. This would also explain why dairy companies do not offer any freebies to consumers and any discounts to distributors are negligible. However, on the down side, the same stickiness in consumer preference also makes it difficult for new entrants to capture customers from established players. The good news is a lot of people are yet to move from buying milk from unorganised neighborhood vendors to picking up branded milk and related products off the shelves. The Indian dairy sector is expected to grow at about 15% compounded annual growth rate, according to ICICI Securities, and there is possibility of steady shift of consumers from unorganised sector to organised sector. The fact that this growth does not need high promotional expenses is an added advantage for newer companies.

Here’s why you see so many ads for soaps and shampoos but not for milk

Dodla Dairy's ₹520 crore IPO isn't to expand into new markets but to strengthen its foothold where it already exists

Mumbai, Feb 13 () <keyword id="108820" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="milk-prices">Milk prices</keyword>, which have risen by Rs 4-5 per litre over the past nine months, are likely to stabilise in 2020-21 as production is expected to pick up due to abundant water availability and anticipated normal monsoon, according to a report. Production of <keyword id="6362951" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="milk">milk</keyword> has been shrinking since April last year due to high summer temperatures and lower availability of water, made worse by delay in rainfall, ratings agency <keyword id="6359483" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Crisil">Crisil</keyword> said in the report. This was followed by floods in various parts of the country, leading to poor animal health. Also, water logging in green pastures kept animals from grazing and damage to crops such as maize and sugarcane, which are used for fodder, crimped fodder availability, leading to lower milk production in the country, it added. This fiscal, milk production is expected to be lower by 5-6 per cent year-on-year at 176 million tonnes. The flush season that usually begins in November-December is estimated to have shifted by 1-2 months because of the delayed monsoon. 
 <div type="Youtube" id="JeGHtDtwmAc" title="Why Camel Milk Is So Expensive | So Expensive" thumbUrl="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JeGHtDtwmAc/mqdefault.jpg"></div>



 Crisil said milk prices began moving up in May 2019, with Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF, better known as Amul) and Mother Dairy hiking the maximum retail price of their full-cream milk pouches by Rs 2 per litre. The two giants followed this up with a further hike of Rs 2 and Rs 3 per litre, respectively, in December, taking it to Rs 55 per litre. Other large dairy processors have started following suit, spurred by the shortfall in milk production around the country, and thereby supply. However, Crisil said milk production is expected to pick up in 2020-21, given abundant water in reservoirs and expectations of a normal monsoon. That should arrest any further rise in milk procurement and retail prices. Further, rabi sowing area had increased 10 per cent as on January 31, 2020. This is expected to lead to a 12 per cent increase in crop production for the season and higher arrivals of key crops such as wheat, bajra, jowar and maize from March would mean copious fodder availability, which should raise milk production next fiscal, the report said. This is expected to stabilise milk procurement costs, bolstering the operating margins of dairy processors. So, milk prices are not expected to rise any further in the coming few quarters, unless monsoons spoil the game for processors, it added.

New Delhi, Mar 31 () GCMMF, which sells dairy products under the Amul brand, expects demand for its milk to decline by 10-12 per cent as hotels and restaurants have closed after the nationwide lockdown, while procurement of milk from farmers has increased by 15 per cent. Mother Dairy and Parag Milk have also witnessed fall in demand in absence of institutional sales, but they hope that some of it could be compensated by rise in household consumption.India is the leading milk producer in the world with an annual output of around 190 million tonne.When contacted, Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF) MD R S Sodhi said the demand for milk had gone up to 155 lakh litre per day due to panic buying from an average 140 lakh litre of sales per day. "Last week, our sales fell by 30 cent from the average 140 lakh litre per day. But again it has risen. Now the gap is 18 per cent and demand will further improve," he told .Sodhi said the cooperative expects demand to fall by 10-12 per cent due to closure of hotels, restaurants and cafeterias.On the other hand, he said the procurement of milk from dairy farmers has increased 15 per cent with tea shops and sweet makers not buying milk from them and the surplus going to GCMMF.''We have hired 2-3 plants to process these surplus milk and convert it into skimmed milk powder," Sodhi said.Asked about other dairy products, he said the demand for some items like butter milk, paneer and ghee has gone up while sales of ice cream, cream and cheese have fallen. Sodhi said the demand will increase once the lockdown is lifted. He said sales improve in summers. When contacted, Mother Dairy spokesperson said it is maintaining the average milk sales volume of 30 lakh litres/day in Delhi-NCR for last few days. "There has been some reduction in volumes of institutional sales due to the lockdown."Devendra Shah, Chairman, Parag Milk Foods, said, "Milk consumption has declined over the past month because of the closure of hotels, restaurants, and catering business".However, he hoped that sales would improve through online delivery platforms. "Over the past month,domestic consumption of ghee, butter, paneer and cheese has increased as entire family is at home. The consumption of pouch milk has decreased due to closure of hotels, restaurants, catering and tea stalls," Shah said. MJH SHW ANUANU

Considering strong OCF yield and consumer-centric business, which usually commands higher multiple, we recommend subscribing to the IPO from the long-term perspective,” it said in a statement. <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none;"></colgroup></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9978225000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Brokerage/analyst </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.9978225000000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Recommendation </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9978225000000001pt;vertical-align:top;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Reliance Securities </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.9978225000000001pt;vertical-align:top;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Subscribe </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;vertical-align:top;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Angel Broking </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;vertical-align:top;background-color:#d9d9d9;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Subscribe </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Dilip Davda </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.6260872500000001pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Subscribe for long term </td></tr></tbody></table> <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Understanding the business of Dodla Dairy" comment="subhead" text="Understanding the business of Dodla Dairy">Understanding the business of Dodla Dairy</cmsannotation> Dodla Dairy has a network of over 1 lakh farmers across South India, helping it procure over 1.03 million litres of milk per day.

After finishing his Bachelor's in Computer Science, Agrawal completed his Doctor of Philosophy, majoring in computer science, according to his Linkedin profile. Parag Agrawal has been with Twitter for just over a decade now and joined as a software engineer. Before taking over as CEO, he was the chief technology officer at the social media firm worth over $37 billion. At Twitter, Agrawal was responsible for the company’s technical strategy, and oversaw machine learning and AI across the consumer, revenue and science teams. Before joining Twitter, Agrawal had stints at Microsoft, Yahoo and AT&amp;T in research roles. Dorsey described him as curious, probing, rational, creative, demanding, self-aware and humble. “The world is watching us right now, even more than they have before. Lots of people are going to have lots of different views and opinions about today’s news,” Agrawal said in a note he shared on Twitter right after the announcement from Dorsey. <div type="twitter" handle="paraga" handlename="Parag Agrawal" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1375285353146327052/y6jeByyD_normal.jpg" favoritecount="9360" retweetcount="2536" status="Deep gratitude for @jack and our entire team, and so much excitement for the future.

This comes just a few days after Tesla cofounder Elon <keyword id="364027" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="musk" source="Orion">Musk</keyword> had put his Twitter acquisition <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/news/elon-musk-puts-44-billion-twitter-deal-on-hold-over-fake-accounts/articleshow/91540983.cms">deal on hold</a> pending an investigation of fake or spam users. Several people have claimed that Musk has put the deal on hold to get the platform at a better price. Musk has himself <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/2baac8e5-48ce-4aa3-a908-0ee2d5693c84">said</a> that a lower price was “not out of the question”. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Spam is hard to catch" comment="subhead" text="Spam is hard to catch">Spam is hard to catch</cmsannotation> Parag Agrawal began his tweets by saying that Twitter is “strongly incentivized to detect and remove as much spam as we possibly can” as spam accounts harm the experience of real users on Twitter and therefore the company’s business. He then added that advanced spam campaigns use a combination of humans and automation to evade detection, making them sophisticated and hard to catch. Agrawal also added that tactics used by spam accounts evolve constantly. “You can’t build a set of rules to detect spam today, and hope they will still work tomorrow. They will not,” Agrawal said. Revealing the number of accounts banned by the company, Agrawal said,” We suspend over half a million spam accounts every day, usually before any of you even see them on Twitter. We also lock millions of accounts each week that we suspect may be spam.” Coming to the 5% number that was reported by Twitter and disputed by Musk, Agrawal said,” Now, we know we aren’t perfect at catching spam. And so this is why, after all the spam removal I talked about above, we know some still slip through. We measure this internally. And every quarter, we have estimated that &lt;5% of reported mDAU for the quarter are spam accounts.” Agrawal claimed that it is not possible to share the information required to calculate the spam accounts publicly. However, the company has shared an “overview of the estimation process” with Musk. Musk replied to Agrawal’s tweets with a “smiling poop” emoji, which received over 41,000 likes in a short duration.

Twitter chief says the company suspends over half a million spam accounts each day as Elon Musk puts his acquisition deal on hold

<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image">AP</div></div></div>German grocers Aldi and Lidl are causing a long and painful price war amongst Britain's biggest supermarkets.The battle gives consumers staple and high-end food products at significantly lower prices. <a href="http://www.kantarworldpanel.com/global/News/Strong-growth-for-Lidl-as-Tescos-decline-slows">Supermarkets, such as Asda and Morrisons, are trying to reclaim market share</a> and bring back shoppers by slashing prices to keep up.However, the price war is not just hurting incumbent supermarkets' bottom lines, it's also starting to destroy Britain's milk industry.The National Farmers Union (NFU) is meeting Morrisons today, as part of its round of talks with individual supermarkets, because it says that some grocers are now paying so little for milk that farmers are not able to cover their costs. If the price war continues, farmers will not be able to make ends meet.The NFU said it costs farmers 62 pence to produce 2.4 litres (4 pints) of milk. However, at the lowest price, some farmers are paid just 48 pence for the same amount of milk. This means that farmers actually lose money by producing and selling milk. On average, British supermarkets sell a bottle of milk at this size for 94 pence.British dairy organisation AHDB Dairy also confirmed that milk prices per litre fell by over a quarter over the last 12 months. The price per litre fell to 24.06 pence in May. However, farmers say it costs around 30-32 pence to produce one litre of milk.Aldi, Lidl, Morrisons, and Asda were all targeted by campaign farming campaign groups because they are the supermarkets that give some of the lowest prices.<a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-33857629">Morrisons have since said it will not lower milk prices any more.</a>Researchers at Kantar Worldpanel confirmed that offering low prices for grocery, and in turn sparking a price war, is <a href="http://www.kantarworldpanel.com/global/News/Strong-growth-for-Lidl-as-Tescos-decline-slows">helping some of these supermarkets to significantly grow</a>."Competition is increasingly intense within the grocery market with price reductions and money-off vouchers becoming the norm," <a href="http://www.kantarworldpanel.com/global/News/Strong-growth-for-Lidl-as-Tescos-decline-slows">said David Berry, director at Kantar Worldpanel, this month.</a>"The strongest performer has been Lidl, with impressive sales growth lifting its share of the market to an all-time high of 9.0%. The discounter has recruited a record number of customers this quarter, with 66% of all Irish householders visiting Lidl at least once during this time."Supermarkets, such as Sainsbury's, have all revealed that they are suffering amid the intense price war."Trading conditions are still being impacted by strong levels of food deflation and a highly competitive pricing backdrop," <a href="http://www.investegate.co.uk/sainsbury-j--plc--sbry-/rns/1st-quarter-results/201506100703407267P">said Sainsbury's CEO Mike Coupe last month.</a> "These pressures, including the effect of our own targeted price investment, have led to a fall in like-for-like sales for the quarter.Sainsbury's reported a 2.1% drop in like-for-like sales, excluding fuel, for the 12 weeks to June 6, in July. <div class="margin-top"> <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/sleeping-positions-and-the-side-effects-2015-7">These are the side effects of sleeping on your back, side, and stomach </a></h3> <div> <div> <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="gxMW41djq48-uZslJrULHZUsnLp15gi5" data-player-variable="ooyalapopvideo" id="ooyalaplayer_popvideo" style="width:1280px;height:720px"></div> </div> </div> </div>
