Liquor permits on health grounds up 58% in Gujarat in three years

IndiaTimes Wednesday, 27 December 2023
Gujarat has seen a 58% increase in the number of liquor permit holders on health grounds in three years. The backlog of renewals has shrunk and new applications are being processed swiftly. Ahmedabad has the highest number of permit holders, followed by Surat, Rajkot, Vadodara, Jamnagar, and Gandhinagar. More people above 40 years of age are applying for liquor health permits due to increasing incidences of insomnia, anxiety, and hypertension. Sales of liquor have increased by at least 20% in 2023 compared to last year, with a rise in visitor permits and a preference for vodka and white rum.
