REVEALED: Liquor sales increase in anantapur kurnool - The Real Truth

Liquor sales in Anantapur and Kurnool districts saw a significant rise in the current fiscal compared to 2020-21, thanks to the lowering of prices by 15% to 20% from December 19 and extending the sale timing at the counters by an hour since last month.

The third-highest jump (41.66%) in sale value in the State this year has been witnessed in Kurnool Depot from ₹346.92 crore till 2021 January-end to ₹441.96 crore E till Saturday.

For the entire financial year, it was ₹491.45 crore. Nandyal Depot recorded only a 21.94% increase in the sale value from ₹369.67 crore to ₹450.76 Crore. The sales in 2019 were ₹661.5 crore, but sales in the current fiscal are yet to reach that level.
