Telangana Aims for Record Liquor Sales
The Telangana government wants to make a lot of money from selling liquor in December 2025.
They think they can sell ₹600 crore worth of liquor in just two days, on December 30 and 31.
So far this month, they've already sold ₹4,300 crore worth of liquor, which is more than last December's total of ₹3,500 crore.
To help reach their goal, they're letting bars and clubs stay open later and sell more liquor.
They're also working with bars to have special New Year celebrations to attract more customers.
Telangana targets ₹600 crore in liquor sales on December 30-31, 2025.
December 2025 sales already reached ₹4,300 crore, surpassing December 2024's ₹3,500 crore.
Bars, clubs, and permitted events can serve liquor until 1 am with prior permission.
Wine and A-4 liquor shops can sell liquor until midnight.
Excise officials are coordinating with bars to organize New Year celebrations and boost sales.
