In Odisha, the humble egg is in price race too

Selling at ₹6.25 per piece till a fortnight back, it now costs ₹7.50 to ₹8 at retail points. A box of eggs (each containing 201 pieces) is retailing at ₹1,420 now while its cost was ₹1,350 last month.

On the contrary, the National Egg Coordination Committee (NECC), which determines and recommends the egg prices across the country, puts the retail price of eggs at ₹5.64 per piece and ₹1,082 per box or 'peti'.

Egg farmers say increasing costs of poultry feed and transportation are pushing the price up in the state.
