The number of liquor stores in the Capital has increased from 350 in September 2022 — when the Delhi government withdrew the 2021-22 excise policy and switched back to the previous 2020-21 regime — to 584 in June, excise department officials aware of the matter said.

234 liquor stores added since switch to 2021 rules: Govt
NEW DELHI: While switching back to the previous excise regime, the department had said that the number of liquor stores in the city would be doubled from 350 to 700. On Saturday, a senior official, declining to be named, confirmed that they are still working to meet the target.

“Our target is to open 700 liquor stores. Most of the 584 stores, including the 234 new ones, are bigger in size as compared to the old government-run liquor stores, and many of them have been opened in malls and commercial complexes as well,” he said, adding that Delhi sees the sale of around 1.3 million bottles of alcohol every day.
