Anmol’s grooming routine is equally meticulous. The buffalo is bathed twice daily, and its coat is maintained with a special blend of almond and mustard oil, giving it a glossy and healthy appearance. Gill’s dedication to Anmol’s well-being is unwavering, even leading him to sell the buffalo’s mother and sister to sustain its care.

Anmol’s Breeding Potential
Anmol’s true value lies in its breeding potential. The buffalo’s semen, collected twice weekly, is highly sought after by breeders. At Rs 250 per extraction, the semen generates a steady monthly income of Rs 4-5 lakh. This lucrative breeding business offsets the high costs of maintaining Anmol while cementing its reputation as a prized possession in the cattle industry.
Despite offers to buy Anmol at its Rs 23 crore valuation, Gill considers the buffalo a family member and has no plans to sell it. “Anmol is not just an asset; it’s part of our family and heritage,” Gill says.
