Andhra Pradesh government has reduced the price of liquor. After which, liquor will now be available cheaper in the state than in other states of the country.
Liquor price: The government in Andhra Pradesh has taken a big decision regarding liquor. Now all types of liquor are available here at cheap prices. However, till some time ago, Andhra Pradesh was among those states where liquor was available at the highest prices. In such a situation, let us know in which states the most expensive and cheapest liquor is available in the country.
The most expensive liquor is available in this state of the country
If we talk about the most expensive liquor in the country, it is available in Karnataka. Where the price of a bottle of liquor is more than Rs 500. On the other hand, if we talk about the cheapest liquor in the country, it is available in Goa. In Goa, a bottle is available for less than Rs 100.
Why do liquor prices fluctuate?
International brand liquor is usually more expensive because high quality grapes and better technology are used in their production. The marketing budget of these brands is also quite large. Apart from this, local brand liquor is usually less expensive because locally available grapes are used in their production and the marketing budget is also less.
Now the question arises that in this way liquor should be equally expensive in every state, then why are there different prices of liquor in every state? So let us tell you that tax is imposed on liquor by the government in every state. The state government imposes this tax as per its own and a lot of revenue is extracted by imposing heavy tax on liquor. Due to this, there is a lot of difference in the prices of liquor in every state.
