HYDERABAD: A bottle of luxury rose champagne that already commanded a six-figure price tag has become even more expensive in Telangana. Following a revision of maximum retail prices (MRPs) for select imported liquor brands, the state’s costliest listed liquor will now retail at a staggering Rs 1,16,560 for a 750ml bottle, marking an increase of Rs 8,360. Despite the latest revision, the premium champagne continues to top the state’s liquor price charts.
The revised prices were notified on Wednesday and cover select imported liquor varieties, including Scotch and single malt whisky, vodka, gin, tequila, wine and champagne. Officials clarified that the increase does not apply to all imported liquor brands. Instead, it is limited to products that were excluded from the previous price revision carried out around two years ago.
