In 1969, Parle Group, led by Ramesh Chauhan, acquired Bisleri and introduced bottled water in India. Initially faced low demand as bottled water was considered unnecessary, but marketing and safety concerns drove acceptance. Available in retail shops, hotels, airports, railway stations, and online platforms for strong market reach. Promoted as safe and pure drinking water, with over 150 plants across India ensuring strict quality control. Offers various bottle sizes (250 ml to 20 liters) and premium variants like Vedica and flavored drinks. Maintains competitive pricing to be affordable while ensuring profitability. Launched Bisleri Greener Promise and Bottles for Change to promote recycling and environmental conservation. Memorable campaigns like “Har Pani Ki Bottle Bisleri Nahi” reinforce brand trust. Supplies water to corporate offices, airlines, events, and cinema halls. Holds ~60% of the ₹18,000 crore Indian bottled water market. Estimated annual revenue of ₹2,500-3,000 crore. Operates over 150 manufacturing plants and 6,000+ distribution trucks. Faces competition from Kinley (Coca-Cola), Aquafina (PepsiCo), Bailley (Parle Agro), and local brands. In 2022-23, Ramesh Chauhan was in discussions to sell Bisleri to Tata Consumer Products for ₹7,000 crore, but the deal did not go through. Focus on growing Vedica (premium water), flavored beverages, and expanding in tier 2 & tier 3 cities. Follow me vishakha Jangir for more such business insights.
