Liquor prices have been slashed in Hyderabad and other parts of Telangana since May 2023.

Alcohol sales have been a major source of revenue for the state as post-state formation, liquor prices were hiked twice and the price of beer was reduced after the initial hike.

The state’s liquor revenue increased from Rs 8000 crore in 2014 to nearly Rs 30,000 crore in 2022-23.

Additionally, the excise department has made Sunday a working day for labelling new prices on the liquor bottles.
