Are you living in Noida and planning to host a house party with liquor? Apply for a bar license or pay Rs 4000 as fine – 9 alcohol brands that you should have at your home

Living in Noida and looking forward to hosting a house party with friends and family? Before sending out those invitations, it’s essential to be aware of recent guidelines emphasizing the importance of obtaining a bar license for liquor-centric gatherings. The district excise officer in Noida has warned that failing to secure this license could result in a substantial fine of INR 4,000.

Occasional licenses for serving liquor at gatherings come in two categories: one for smaller gatherings such as house parties, and another for larger crowds at community halls, restaurants, or banquets. Individuals hosting smaller gatherings can obtain a license for a fee of INR 4,000, while those organizing larger events will need to pay a license fee of INR 11,000.

How to file a complaint

To facilitate reporting on potential violations, the excise department has established a helpline number (8882120733), encouraging residents to share information about the consumption of illegal narcotics, drugs, or any other concerns related to liquor use.

Here are the 9 alcohol brands that you should have in your home mini bar:
