Pune Egg Prices Soar: Protein Lovers & Households Feel The Heat As Eggs Touch ₹10 Each

Pune: Fitness freaks struggle to complete their protein intake while breakfast is now more expensive these days, with egg prices in Pune having increased sharply over the past month due to a fall in supply, rising poultry feed costs and higher transportation expenses during the monsoon. The price rise has affected both households and businesses that rely on eggs every day.

According to a Times of India report, retail egg prices have climbed to around Rs 8.50 per egg across the city, while branded eggs are being sold for up to Rs 10 each at some stores. In the wholesale market, prices have risen from Rs 7.20 per egg on July 1 to Rs 7.80 per egg by July 20.
