Liquor sales in GIFT City increase significantly over the past two years, according to government replies cited by multiple outlets. NDTV reports that sales rise by about 60,000 litres during the period ending July 2026, while Times of India says GIFT City sees a 15-fold jump, reaching 56,638 litres in 2025-26.
The outlets also provide figures on revenue. NDTV states the government earns Rs 87.39 lakh from liquor sales during the period mentioned in the written reply. Times of India focuses on the volume increase into 2025-26, describing the scale of the rise, while NDTV emphasizes the overall two-year change and the associated earnings.
Both sources attribute the numbers to official information provided in response to questions in Parliament, but they highlight different snapshots of the trend—one using a broader two-year change and the other concentrating on a specific fiscal-year increase.
