Tasmac Temporarily Bans Then Resumes Sale of 11 Enrica Liquor Brands in Tamil Nadu
The Tamil Nadu State Marketing Corporation (Tasmac) temporarily halted the sale of 11 liquor brands manufactured by Enrica Enterprises following an FSSAI inspection that found non-compliance with flavouring substance norms and product labelling issues. The ban, issued on August 11, covered ten brandy varieties and one rum. After the manufacturer assured compliance, the Prohibition and Excise Department revoked the ban on August 14, allowing sales and transfers to resume across Tamil Nadu.
