TASMAC has cancelled its order to procure all brands of liquor equally and announced that shopkeepers can now purchase larger quantities of high-demand and fast-selling liquor brands.
TASMAC management announced that employees can receive a festival advance of 20,000 rupees once a year based on their preferred festival, which will be deducted from their monthly salary in ten installments.
