This article is written by Vrinda Nigam, a student of Amity Law School, explaining the
requirements for opening a microbrewery in India.
INTRODUCTION
Most Indians are not really beer dipsomaniacs,
they like their hard liquor more. But for those who
are, nothing beats the freshly ‘crafted’ beer served
at microbreweries. Sadly the prevalence of the
culture of microbreweries is not much popular in
India majorly because of challenges such as
stringent state liquor laws, licensing issues,
restriction of funds and lack of skilled labour for
the highly technical job of brewing.
MICROBREWERY
A microbrewery or craft brewery is a brewery that produces a small amount of beer.

Exact definitions vary, but the terms are typically applied to breweries that are much
smaller than large-scale corporate breweries and are independently owned. Such

breweries are generally characterized by their emphasis on quality, flavor and brewing
technique.
The market for microbreweries is still developing. Today, only 4-5 states have established
microbreweries that are essentially resto-bars where one can consume fresh-off-the-tap
beer that has been brewed in-house. These microbreweries produce between 5,000 and
50,000 litres of beer, a day. It takes about seven hours to brew each variety of beer using
imported ingredients. None of it is bottled and there are no preservatives added in the
process. Those who tasted the full-bodied beer offered at microbreweries abroad were left
craving for freshly brewed stuff. A few decided to take matters into their hands, and set up
their own microbreweries here in India. According to industry estimates, the market for
such finely crafted beers currently ranges between Rs75 crore to Rs 125 crore
microbeweries and it takes about Rs 6 crore on an average to set up a microbrewery., it
takes about seven hours to brew each variety of beer using imported ingredients.
With liquor being a state subject, microbrewery operators have to obtain a separate
licence from the excise department which is a very strenuous task to say the least. To
make matters worse, there are only a handful of states such as Haryana , Karnataka and
Maharashtra, Punjab and West Bengal that give out microbrewery licences.
THE LEGALITIES
Excise, License, tax, duty & other legal requirements:
Up till now we only have 3-4 Indian states with complete excise policy, but Maharashtra
and Haryana were the first ones in this field. Excise policies deal with any kind of narcotics
or intoxicants in alcohol/liquor industry, for which they levy taxes on the production based
on fixed set of standards and guidelines. Generally this is done on per bulk liter for
packaged beer in cartons and for microbreweries where there is no packaging involved.
These taxes are put over the weekly or monthly production and also depend on the alcohol
by volume (ABV), which is fixed for a tax rate and goes up with increase in ABV, but
generally ABV in beers in microbreweries is not allowed over 8%.
A microbrewery or a brewpub license is issued by the state excise government which

allows the company to start operations in its microbrewery for commercial use. Earlier the
price for this license was over around Rs. 10 lacs/ year which was similar to the normal
commercial large scale breweries, however due to recent developments it has gone to as

much as Rs. 25,000/ year. But these figures may vary from state to state, because the
excise regulations are state regulated and not centralized. An average of Rs. I -2 lac/ year
should be taken in to account while planning the investment of the project.
If the microbrewer aspires to outset a pub in the premise, he needs to apply for a
separate bar license, so that it follows the established state regulations of the respected
state where he wants to establish the brewery.
Importing fabrication equipments from a different state in India involves some excise over
the stainless steel used and in case the equipments are imported from china, or some
European countries, a custom duty will be levied upon the goods from 10-30% of the total
purchase, depending on the nature of equipments, the shipment location and their use. In
case of imported raw materials an excise also need to be paid for them along with the
customs duty for the nature of materials that are used in the production of alcohol.
Other licenses required for the setup:

1. Commercial Electricity line
2. Commercial water line- Municipality/ under ground bore water
3. Land registration/ Lease sanction
4. Company registration
5. Waste water disposal certificate from pollution control board
6. Fabricated equipment quality certificate from third party inspection (loyds, SGS, etc.)
7. Water quality testing certificate from quality control labs (SGS, etc.)
8. Quality Control (QC) certificate of finished beer from govt. approved QC labs, on random inspection
basis.
EXCISE POLICIES OF DIFFERENT STATES:

WEST BENGAL (came to force in 2007)
The rules laid down by the Excise Department of West Bengal are as follows:
Rule 79 provides that
“(1) Breweries may be established for manufacture of beer for—

(a) sale within West Bengal by wholesale;
(b) export outside West Bengal;
(c) supply out of India; and
(d) for all or any of the above purposes.’
Rule 80 provides that, “Any person desiring to obtain license to work a brewery or a
micro-brewery in any place in West Bengal shall apply in writing to the Excise
Commissioner with receipted original Challan showing deposit of a non-refundable
application fee of Rs. 50,000/- for a brewery and Rs. 25,000/- for a micro-brewery. The
provisions of rules 4 and 6 shall apply mutatis mutandis to such application for license.” in
case of micro-brewery the fees as aforesaid shall be at the rate of Re.0.10 per bulk litre
subject to a minimum of Rs. 30,000/-“
HARYANA
Haryana excise department provided for the following rules of microbrewery projects in
clause 9.10 of the “Excise Policy for the year 2013-14 & 2014-15”
L-10C LICENSE FOR PROMOTION OF MICROBREWERY PROJECT: In order to

promote healthy drinking habit of liquor with low alcoholic content a license in form L-10C
is granted for retail and sale of beer to be manufactured by Microbrewery Project. The
license shall be granted to holders of L-4 license which deals with ‘Retail vend of foreign
liquor in a Restaurant’ and L-5 license which deals with ‘Retail vend of foreign liquor in a
bar attached to a restaurant’ on payment of Annual License Fee of Rs. 2.50 Lac. The
excise duty shall be charged on the basis of its daily installed capacity @ Rs 18 per Bulk
Litre (BL).
KARNATAKA (came in force in 2010)
In 2010, it was one of the first states in the country to come up with corresponding rules
and policies. The city now has only four microbreweries. The Karnataka Brewery Rules,
1967 was amended to allow bars, clubs and hotels to open microbreweries. Apart from a
one-time permit fee of Rs 2.5 lakh, microbreweries are required to pay excise duty of Rs.
17.5 per litre. The excise department imposed a flat tax on 50 per cent of the installed.

The Rules also specify that the minimum space between the floor and ceiling of the
microbrewery should be 14 feet.
Excise minister MP Renukacharya said that micro-breweries were very popular in foreign
countries as people preferred to savour fresh beer. “Bangalore is a fast developing
global city, attracting huge visitors from abroad. Keeping these factors in mind
we have decided to give micro-brewery licences for Bars (CL-9) Clubs (CL-4)
Lodges and Hotels (CL-7) and Star Hotels (CL-6A),” he said.
MAHARASHTRA
For a microbrewery manufacturing upto two lakh litres of beer per
year a licence in FORM BRL shall be granted. the BRL licensee manufacturing beer upto
two lakh litres per year in a microbrewery, shall be allowed to sell the beer manufactured
in an unbottled and
unpackaged form in the premises.
To know more about the Maharashtra’s state excise policies you may refer to:
https://stateexcise.maharashtra.gov.in/Pdf/Maharashtra_Excise_Manual_Vol-I.pdf.
CONCLUSION
Microbrewery in India is not a prevalent culture though, but people are gradually
developing their taste towards freshly made crafted beer. Earlier, not much was known
about beer as its market in India was not really expanded. As the time is passing by,
people are acquiring more awareness and fondness towards beer. Freshly made beer is
leading the charts as nothing beats crafted beer. Some handful of states in India such as
Haryana, Karnataka, Maharashtra, West Bengal and Punjab has given licenses to run
microbreweries. Despite of having such license, no trace of microbrewery can be found in
West Bengal. Delhi being a metropolitan, still doesn’t have a license to run their own
microbrewery. Proposals have been made to the government by five star hotels, malls and
private individuals for granting the license of microbreweries in Delhi to which the
government says that it will consider the said issue after the Delhi State Elections in
February. While Punjab got its first microbrewery in 2013.

‘Microbreweries’ are not as such a distant dream it has become a reality now because
steadily the states are granting licenses to run microbreweries as the people are getting
more interested in the beer culture. Some believe it to be an unexplored profitable
business while some are just happy with consuming its fresh and diverse flavors.

microbrewery or its license, feel free to ask by commenting below.
