According to state excise minister Nitin Agarwal here on Friday, the revenue collected till January 2026 in FY 2025–26 is Rs 6,074.80 crore, higher than the Rs 37,900.35 crore collected during the same period (up to January 2025) in FY 2024–25, marking an increase of 16.03%.
Attributing this success to a harmonious framework of innovation and vigilance, the Finance Minister highlighted that the Excise and Taxation department has not only surpassed previous benchmarks but also successfully implemented the One-Time Settlement (OTS) Scheme-2025 and advanced data analytics to dismantle tax evasion.
The excise revenue is mainly accrued from Indian Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL) on and off shops, breweries and distillery units.
