India: Governments of Delhi and Chhattisgarh Permit Home Delivery of Wine and Liquor
On May 25, 2021, the Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi (NCTD) issued a notification permitting the home delivery of wine and liquor within the territory. Likewise, the State of Chhattisgarh announced its intention to permit home delivery of liquor in the state beginning May 10. These decisions are likely to generate needed tax revenue to the governments of Delhi and Chhattisgarh, which experienced significant revenue losses during the past year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
