Allied Blenders and Distillers sold more than 3.6 million cases in October, setting a second straight monthly record

Allied Blenders and Distillers said Wednesday, November 4, that it sold more than 3.6 million cases in October, setting a second straight monthly record as demand stayed firm during India’s festive season.

The Mumbai-based spirits company said the October total covered sales in India and its international markets. It followed September, when sales also crossed a record threshold of more than 3.5 million cases. Because the company disclosed both figures only as amounts above those levels, the exact month-to-month increase could not be calculated.

The company, also known as ABD, described the October result as part of a broader run of volume growth in the current fiscal year. According to the statement reproduced by BazaarWatch, October marked the fourth monthly sales high in seven months. The company did not provide a year-over-year comparison for October.

ABD makes whisky, brandy, rum, vodka and gin. In its November corporate statement, it said it operates through a network of 41 manufacturing units and has a presence in 42 international markets. The statement did not break down October sales by product category, and it did not separate domestic sales from exports.

The record comes at a time when liquor makers in India often see stronger demand tied to festivals, celebrations and seasonal buying. ABD’s statement linked the latest gains to that period of higher consumption, but it did not provide a detailed explanation of how much of the increase came from specific brands, regions or channels.

No revenue figure was released with the sales volume update, and the company did not specify the size of the cases used in the disclosure. That means the announcement offers a limited view of the commercial impact of the record month, even as it points to continued momentum in shipment volumes.

BazaarWatch, a market information portal that tracks listed Indian companies, reproduced the company’s statement in full on Wednesday, November 4. The original PDF was not accessible in the reviewed material, which limited independent verification to the text carried by the secondary source.

Even with those limits, the update indicates ABD extended the growth streak it highlighted a month earlier. Crossing 3.5 million cases in September and then moving above 3.6 million in October suggests the company kept adding volume through the festive period, though the published thresholds do not show the exact pace of that increase.
