Alcoholic Beverages: United Spirits Ltd owns the largest revenue base; Tilaknagar Industries Ltd has the fastest current growth.
Nifty Alcoholic Beverages Index — Constituents & Performance
The Alcoholic Beverages companies below are the listed Indian Alcoholic Beverages universe this page tracks — the same constituent set people search for as the Nifty Alcoholic Beverages index. Every figure is equal-weighted across those companies, so one large constituent cannot set the reading. Each number carries its own as-of date.
The sector itself · before any single company
How has Alcoholic Beverages moved against NIFTY 500?
The line below covers 5.1 years. Over the most recent two of them this sector is 29% ahead of NIFTY 500. Earnings across its companies grew 18% on average over the last four reported quarters.

Participation is not spreading downward this month; the larger companies are still carrying most of it.
Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the sector line is an equal-weighted index of its 13 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the sector taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

Is Alcoholic Beverages outperforming NIFTY 500?
The 52-week comparison of Alcoholic Beverages against NIFTY 500 is not available from the current market series. 5 of 14 covered companies currently beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. G M Breweries Ltd is the strongest against the sector itself at +37.3%. Readings are as of 2026-07-19.

4-Factor Sector Score
An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.
Radico Khaitan Ltd has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 95.6% evidence confidence.
Associated Alcohols & Breweries Ltd looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
United Spirits Ltd has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is guarded: positive earnings, positive 5–60% three-year EPS growth, and a positive P/E are required.
Decision use: Acceleration candidate, not a confirmed leader: earnings are strong but sector-relative strength is -5.2% and the one-year return is -15.2%. Do not upgrade until sector-relative strength is above zero and another reported period confirms growth.
Decision use: Balanced evidence: keep at normal research priority and require another comparable period before raising conviction.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability
United Spirits Ltd has the highest Revenue among the 14 Alcoholic Beverages companies compared here, at ₹12,626 crore. United Breweries Ltd is next at ₹9,240 crore. Tilaknagar Industries Ltd has the highest Revenue growth at 68.5%, so level and change sit with different companies. 14 of 14 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: United Spirits Ltd is the scale leader at ₹12,626 crore, 36.6% ahead of United Breweries Ltd. Tilaknagar Industries Ltd's growth is 68.5% from a ₹2,379 crore base, with 19 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

This conclusion weakens if: United Spirits Ltd's growth falls below Tilaknagar Industries Ltd's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.
Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

This conclusion weakens if: CAPEX rises without higher utilization, operating cash flow or incremental returns.
CAPEX is cash spent on property, plant, equipment and other reported capital assets. CAPEX intensity divides that spend by revenue; high intensity is a reinvestment signal, not proof that the reinvestment will earn attractive returns.

Gross debt shows contractual borrowings. Net debt subtracts reported cash; a negative value means net cash. Lower debt can create capacity, but should be read against the scale and capital intensity of the business.

Before the conclusion · check the blind spots
What can make this comparison misleading?
This Alcoholic Beverages comparison names 6 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 14 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 5 draw at least one figure from a second feed with too little overlap to cross-check. 1 of the 8 ranked sections has fewer than three usable current readings.
Keep these limits visible
A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
5 companies draw at least one figure from a second data feed with too little overlapping history to cross-check against the primary source; they are marked unverified wherever those figures appear.
Thin comparisons: Capital expenditure have fewer than three usable current readings.
10 · the complete set
Which companies are included?
All 14 companies in the canonical Alcoholic Beverages membership are listed below, largest market value first — nothing is silently dropped, even where a company reports too little to rank. The charts above default to a selective view; this register is the complete set, with each company's own latest reporting date beside it.
AHEAD means the company is beating the index by 5% or more over three months. LAGGING, FUNDAMENTALS UP means it is 20% or more behind over a year while its trailing twelve-month earnings grew 20% or more. Both rules are fixed and applied the same way in every sector.
How each company's sources stand: 5 of 14 companies draw at least one figure from a second data feed that could not be cross-checked against the primary source, because the two do not share enough reported history to compare. Those figures are marked unverified wherever they appear.
Evidence and freshness
How was this comparison built?
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 14 Alcoholic Beverages companies, normalized to a common ₹ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-07-24. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.
FundamentalsThrough Jun 2026 · up to 20 quarters per company
Market dataThrough 2026-07-24 · weekly price and relative-strength history
Derived metricsGrowth, changes, CAPEX intensity, net debt, guarded PEG and P/BV÷ROE are calculated only when their inputs are comparable.
Score confidenceMissing and stale evidence reduces confidence and pulls the 0–100 research-priority score toward neutral.
A second feed is read only after its reported income is matched against the primary source on at least three overlapping periods. Where the two agree the figures fill silently. Where there is too little shared history to compare, the figures are still drawn — they are the only evidence there is — and marked ⚠ unverified everywhere they appear. Where the two are known to disagree, nothing from the second feed is drawn and the affected company is named under the chart it is missing from. Every company's standing is listed in the register above.
These 18 answers restate the Alcoholic Beverages comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 14 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-07-24. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.
What is the Nifty Alcoholic Beverages index?
The Nifty Alcoholic Beverages index tracks India's listed Alcoholic Beverages companies as a single basket. This page follows the same 14 companies and equal-weights them, so every company's weekly return counts once whatever it is worth, and the reading belongs to the Alcoholic Beverages sector rather than to its largest constituent. Figures are as of Jun 2026.
Which are the best Alcoholic Beverages stocks in India?
Ranked by this page's four-factor score, Radico Khaitan Ltd places first among 14 listed Alcoholic Beverages companies, followed by G M Breweries Ltd. That is a ranking of published data — earnings, quality, valuation and market behaviour as of Jun 2026 — and not a recommendation; Sector Alpha is not registered with SEBI as an investment adviser.
How many Alcoholic Beverages stocks are listed in India?
This comparison covers 14 listed Alcoholic Beverages companies in India, each above the size floor the site applies, with 20 quarters of reported figures per company where the filings exist. The full ranked list is on this page, as of Jun 2026.
Which Alcoholic Beverages company is the biggest?
United Spirits Ltd is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of ₹12,626 crore, ahead of United Breweries Ltd at ₹9,240 crore. That covers 14 of 14 companies with comparable reporting through Jun 2026.
Which Alcoholic Beverages company is growing fastest?
Tilaknagar Industries Ltd has the fastest revenue growth at 68.5% year on year, across 14 of 14 comparable companies. Fast growth off a small base is not the same as proven scale — check whether the rate holds across several quarters on the chart above before treating it as a trend.
Which Alcoholic Beverages company has the best profit margins?
G M Breweries Ltd has the highest operating margin at 23%, from 14 of 14 comparable companies. Radico Khaitan Ltd shows the biggest recent improvement, at +5 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.
Which Alcoholic Beverages company makes the most profit?
United Spirits Ltd earns the most, at ₹1,884 crore of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 14 of 14 comparable companies. Globus Spirits Ltd has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.
Which Alcoholic Beverages company earns the highest return on capital?
United Spirits Ltd leads on return on capital employed at 26.4%, across 14 of 14 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.
Which Alcoholic Beverages stock is the cheapest?
On guarded PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Tilaknagar Industries Ltd screens cheapest at 0.58×. Only 6 of 14 companies pass the comparability guard, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.
Which Alcoholic Beverages company has the strongest balance sheet?
G M Breweries Ltd carries the lowest comparable gross debt at ₹35 crore, from 14 of 14 companies. Absolute rupee debt alone does not settle it, because company scale differs — net debt and debt-to-equity in the chart above carry more information, and a very low-debt balance sheet can also mean under-investment.
Which Alcoholic Beverages stock has the strongest price momentum?
Radico Khaitan Ltd has the strongest relative strength against NIFTY 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.
Which Alcoholic Beverages company scores highest for research priority?
Radico Khaitan Ltd scores 76 out of 100 with 95.6% evidence confidence, from 29.9 points on growth and earnings, 19.7 on capital efficiency, 6.8 on valuation and 19.6 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.

Why are some values on this page blank?
A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.
Is this investment advice?
No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
