Companies say rising raw material costs, higher packaging expenses, and increased logistics charges are forcing them to consider price revisions. Several firms have already increased product prices by around 3–5 percent and may raise them further if inflation continues.

The FMCG Companies Price Hike trend comes as global supply disruptions, geopolitical tensions, and the weakening rupee add pressure on manufacturing costs. Major companies like Dabur and Britannia have indicated that price adjustments may become necessary to protect profit margins.
