An order in this regard has also been issued by the Excise Department of the Delhi Government. In fact, the excise department has allowed private shops to give up to 25 per cent discount on the maximum retail price (MRP) of liquor.

After this order, the round of discounts and offers at the liquor shops has started again. Under the government order, shopkeepers will now be able to offer up to 25 per cent discount on mrp of liquor bottles.
