Egg prices in Namakkal, Tamil Nadu, are currently at ₹575 per 100, up from ₹509 last year due to export demand and supply issues.
Egg exports from India to countries like the US, UAE, Qatar, Muscat, and African countries are contributing to the strong domestic market demand.
The poultry sector is benefitting from favorable weather conditions this summer and low raw material prices, which have boosted profitability and stability in the industry.
While egg exports from India have seen a decline of about 9% to $185.98 million in 2024-25, the industry remains optimistic about future orders, particularly from the US pending tariff developments.
