Abstract: This policy brief presents the trends and growth in sales across different CSDs product subcategories; presents global best practices in designing layered-sugar taxes and evaluates the Indian tax regime; examines the impact of the high GST and recommends a layered-sugar tax that can help increase government GST collections, limit the intake of added sugars in beverages/support positive health outcomes and incentivise product reformulations leading to the production of healthier beverages, more investment, job creation and the overall growth of the sector.
