Why Protein Is The New Global Currency: AMUL CEO

Aug 16, 2025, 11:00 AM IST

In an exclusive conversation with BT TV, AMUL CEO Jayen Mehta discusses why protein is emerging as a “global currency” and how milk, a natural superfood, plays a central role. Mehta highlights India's growing appetite for protein, noting that even from whey, only 0.6% protein is extracted, showing the value of high-protein products. Addressing trade concerns, Mehta clarifies that while Amul has been labeled a “tariff king,” this is a misinterpretation. For instance, prior to August 1st, a kilo of ghee faced a 50% tariff in the U.S., and shrikhand was taxed at 75%. Despite this, the Indian diaspora continues to pay high duties—often 40–50%—to access these products. According to Mehta, those who truly want authentic Indian dairy won't be deterred by tariffs.

US Tariff Hypocrisy? Amul & GTRI Hit Back On Dairy, Agri Access | BT India@100

Aug 08, 2025, 09:09 PM IST

In this sharp Two-Window reactions at the BT India@100 Summit, GTRI’s Ajay Srivastava and Amul MD Jayen Mehta expose the double standards in the U.S.'s tariff war with India. Srivastava argues that the U.S. is leveraging the agri-dairy issue as a distraction, while pushing for deeper structural concessions—from patent law dilution to banning future digital taxes. Mehta busts the “tariff king” myth, revealing how Indian dairy exports like ghee and shrikhand face up to 75% duty in the U.S., while India imposes only 30%. Together, they call out the imbalance and assert India's red lines. A must-watch for anyone tracking agri-trade, food security, and India's global negotiations.
