Haryana's new excise policy led to a 20% increase in Gurugram's liquor prices, with a successful e-tender auction of 162 zones, generating ₹1,756 crore for the government, an 9.4% increase over the reserve price. The policy aims to streamline the liquor trade, prevent monopolies, and ensure quality liquor at reasonable prices. Further auctions are scheduled, with the aim of increasing revenue further.
