Jaikishan Pati
Chairman, All India Brewers Association
India's beer industry is undergoing a significant phase of evolution, driven by changing consumer preferences, increasing urbanisation, rising disposable incomes and a growing appreciation for moderate alcohol consumption. As an industry association, AIBA remains committed to supporting this growth responsibly while engaging constructively with policymakers, regulators and stakeholders.
Our focus continues to be on fostering a balanced regulatory environment that encourages industry development while upholding social responsibility, quality standards and consumer awareness. Beer, as a relatively low-alcohol beverage, has an important role in promoting moderation and responsible drinking culture in India.
AIBA actively works towards providing credible industry insights, facilitating policy dialogue, encouraging sustainable brewing practices and strengthening public awareness about responsible consumption. Collaboration between industry, government and society is essential to ensure a progressive and transparent ecosystem.
We remain optimistic about the future of India's beer sector and are committed to supporting its growth in a responsible, sustainable and globally competitive manner.
