It was also found that the said beverages company carried about 900 boxes of liquor without any valid pass/permit. Apart from this, it was also found that the said company had repeatedly violated the terms and conditions of the license and penal action had already been taken with heavy fine.

Taking strong cognizance of this, the department has canceled the license of the said liquor factory. Orders have also been given to seal this factory. This action was taken under the HP Excise Act, Distillaries rules and HP bonded warehouse rules.
