Radico Khaitan Limited Expands Global Reach: Indian Luxury Whisky Brands Land in the Home of Scotch
Radico Khaitan Limited, RADICO, expands its luxury whisky brands to four major UK airports, marking a significant milestone in global travel retail.
Radico Khaitan Limited, one of India’s leading spirits companies, is taking its portfolio of Indian luxury spirits to four major UK airports, becoming the first Indian spirit brands to be available across these airports’ duty-free shops. It marks a significant step in its Global Travel Retail (GTR) expansion strategy. The Company’s premium brands, including Rampur Indian Single Malt Double Cask, Rampur Asava, Rampur Barrel Blush and Sangam World Malt, now available to international travelers at Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester, and Birmingham airports.
Global Expansion Strategy
Radico Khaitan’s global travel retail expansion comes against the backdrop of strong momentum in its premium and luxury portfolio. Its Prestige & Above portfolio contributed 70.3% of IMFL value in FY26, reflecting the growing importance of premiumisation to the company’s business.
Strategic Importance
Commenting on the development, Abhishek Khaitan, Managing Director, Radico Khaitan, said “Our international ambition is not simply about increasing the number of airports in which we operate. It is about building meaningful brand presence and ensuring that Indian spirits are experienced in the right environments, by consumers who appreciate provenance, craftsmanship and distinctive character. This entry is an important milestone in our journey to take Indian luxury to the world. Global Travel Retail gives us the opportunity to connect with consumers from different parts of the world and showcase the depth, diversity and evolving quality of Indian spirits.”
Market Opportunity
These four airports together handled over 170 million passengers in 2025. Heathrow, Europe’s busiest airport, recorded approximately 84.5 million passengers, while Gatwick, Manchester, and Birmingham handled approximately 42.8 million, 32.1 million, and 13.7 million passengers, respectively. Together, these airports represent a substantial opportunity to increase the visibility and accessibility of Indian luxury spirits in global travel retail.
Sanjeev Banga, President – International Business, Radico Khaitan, added “There is a certain charm in taking Indian whisky to the home of Scotch whisky. We are not asking the world to choose between Scotch and Indian whisky. We are simply making sure that Indian whisky gets a seat at the table, and perhaps a place on the airport shelf as well. This is an exciting opportunity to show travelers that the world of whisky has room for more than one accent, and this time, the accent is unmistakably Indian.”
The portfolio entering the UK airport network reflects Radico Khaitan’s focus on combining Indian provenance with global standards of craftsmanship. Rampur Indian Single Malt, crafted at the Rampur Distillery established in 1943, draws on the distinctive climate of the Himalayan foothills. The portfolio includes expressions such as Double Cask, Asava, and Barrel Blush, each offering a different interpretation of Indian single malt whisky. Sangam World Malt further strengthens the Company’s premium whisky offering, contributing to Radico Khaitan’s broader strategy of building a diversified portfolio of Indian luxury spirits for international consumers.
The expansion marks a landmark giant step in Radico Khaitan’s long-term international growth strategy, with Global Travel Retail expected to play an increasingly important role in strengthening brand visibility, encouraging trial and building recognition for Indian spirits among global travelers.

Radico Khaitan Limited (radico) Unveils Natural Brand Positioning for Rampur Indian Single Malt
Radico Khaitan Limited unveils a natural brand positioning for Rampur Indian Single Malt, ’43° | 2° – Born in Nature’s Frequency’, highlighting its unique ma.
Rampur Indian Single Malt, the globally acclaimed whisky from Radico Khaitan Limited (NSE: RADICO), has unveiled a new brand positioning, ’43° | 2° – Born in Nature’s Frequency’. This innovative positioning emphasizes the natural maturation process influenced by the seasonal temperature extremes of Rampur’s Himalayan foothills. The brand’s new platform highlights the cask’s expansion and contraction due to the 43°C summers and 2°C winters, which shapes the whisky’s character.
Unique Climate Influence
The natural positioning is built on the unique climatic conditions of Rampur’s home. The seasonal temperature swings are integral to the maturation process, which is now the signature of the brand. This climate influence is also the subject of international scientific research. Rampur Distillery has been selected to represent Asia in The 8 Continent Series, an international study examining how geographical and climatic conditions affect single malt whisky maturation.
Cultural and Symbolic Significance
The new platform, ’43° | 2° – Born in Nature’s Frequency’, connects the rhythm of the natural world with the maturation process. The number 432, formed by combining 43 and 2, carries cultural and symbolic associations with harmony, balance, and the rhythm of nature. This provides a creative lens to tell a more expansive story about Rampur’s origins and craft.
Market Expansion and Recognition
The campaign is being rolled out across on-trade and retail touchpoints to create a consistent expression of the brand’s new platform. It is complemented by digital storytelling featuring actor Mihir Ahuja, which brings the idea of 43° | 2° to a wider audience. This announcement comes as Radico Khaitan continues to strengthen its premium and luxury portfolio, with its Prestige & Above segment recording 35.8% volume growth in Q1 FY2027.

The company reported a 108.06% year-on-year growth in revenue, reaching ₹ 5,088.70 Mn, and a significant 157.51% year-on-year increase in PAT, standing at ₹ 177.27 Mn. These impressive figures highlight Mukka Proteins’ strong execution and growth trajectory.
Consolidated Financial Performance
The consolidated revenue for Q2 FY27 was ₹ 5,088.70 Mn, compared to ₹ 4,896.54 Mn in Q1 FY27 and ₹ 2,445.81 Mn in Q2 FY26. The PAT for the quarter stood at ₹ 177.27 Mn, up from ₹ 68.84 Mn in Q2 FY26. The EBITDA increased to ₹ 501.18 Mn, marking a 90.73% year-on-year increase. The EBITDA margin stood at 9.85%, down slightly from 10.74% in the same quarter last year.
Standalone Financial Performance
On a standalone basis, revenue for Q2 FY27 was ₹ 4,115.42 Mn, reflecting an 85.15% year-on-year growth. The PAT rose to ₹ 106.99 Mn from ₹ 36.10 Mn in Q2 FY26. The EBITDA increased to ₹ 357.53 Mn, up 84.41% year-on-year. The PAT margin expanded to 2.60%, up from 1.62% in the same quarter last year.
The growth was supported by strong export demand, improved realizations, and favorable industry dynamics amid global fishmeal supply constraints. However, geopolitical disruptions and supply-chain constraints resulted in the execution of certain shipments being deferred to October 2026.
Mukka Proteins’ capacity expansion, including the commencement of commercial production at the Oman facility, has increased the Group’s overall production capacity and strengthened its manufacturing presence in the Middle East. The U.S. FDA facility registration and USDA NOP Inputs Attestation for Eco Sphere Organic Fertilizer are expected to support product acceptance in organic-farming markets, including the United States.
Looking ahead, Mukka Proteins aims to ramp up operations at the Al Juba facility, execute deferred shipments, deepen market access, and improve operating efficiencies across the Group.
