Carbonated beverages are driving growth in the India soft drinks market, as many consumers enjoy the fizzy sensation and the unique taste imparted by carbon dioxide.
Carbonated beverages are characterised by their effervescence and offer a wide array of flavours. Colas, lemon-lime sodas, and sparkling waters are popular choices among consumers, specifically those who are looking for a refreshing and bubbly drink experience. With their versatility and ability to be enjoyed on their own or as mixers in cocktails, carbonated soft drinks maintain a significant presence in the market, appealing to a broad target audience.
On October 4, 2023, Coca-Cola India launched 100% recycled PET bottles for its Coca-Cola carbonated beverages segments. These bottles will be available in 250 ml and 750 ml pack sizes across various Indian markets. These bottles were another step in Coca-Cola India's sustainability journey, following the earlier launch of PET bottles for its Kinley packaged drinking water brand.
The non-carbonated segment of the soft drinks market targets consumers who are looking for beverages without fizz. Fruit juices, iced teas, sports drinks, and functional beverages fall into this category, providing consumers with options for drinks containing natural flavours and certain health benefits. These beverages often capitalise on trends such as wellness and hydration, boasting nutritional enhancements that consumers need. They are specifically appealing to health-conscious individuals and those seeking a smoother beverage experience.
