Beverages – M&As, Funding & Investments

The Mumbai-based spirits company will establish a malt distillery and maturation warehouse in Maharashtra as it expands its premium spirits portfolio.

The new 0.33-litre PET format uses rPET compatibility, detachable decoration and existing PET filling infrastructure to support scalable beverage packaging.

The investment will add manufacturing capacity in Vizianagaram and Chittoor, with new bottling lines supplying Coca-Cola beverages across several southern Indian markets.

The Tax Appeals Tribunal ruled that Coca-Cola introduced its input VAT claim after the six-month statutory window had closed.

The five-year investment will expand production, distribution and office facilities as Coca-Cola reports an $85 billion contribution to US GDP in 2025.
