In all 64 samples from four localities <i>viz.</i>, East, West, North and South were collected and judged for sensory quality and chemical composition. From the results, it was observed that the samples of dahi sold by hotel were higher in fat (4.80%), SNF (8.39%) and lactose (4.48%) contents than dahi samples sold by vendors. While the moisture (86.65%) and titratable acidity (1.08% lactic acid) content was lower than the dahi samples sold by vendors. It was noted the dahi sold by hotels was better in quality than the dahi sold by vendors.
