Limca Records ₹2800 Crore in 2024, Powers Coca-Cola India's Sparkling Growth
NEW DELHI, May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Limca, Coca-Cola India's iconic homegrown beverage, has crossed the ₹2800 crore mark in 2024, driving the lemon-lime category forward with strong momentum across India. For over five decades, Limca has been the ultimate beverage of summer refreshment with its signature cloudy bubbles and the unmistakable Lime 'n' Lemoni taste.
Since its inception in 1971, Limca has been a driving force in strengthening the company's sparkling portfolio with demand soaring across both urban and rural markets. Today, the brand is witnessing strong double-digit growth in key states such as Delhi, Punjab and Haryana, gaining share across both traditional trade and emerging retail formats.
Central to Limca's enduring success are its innovative brand campaigns that keep the brand contemporary while celebrating its legacy. In 2025, Limca ushered in a new era of refreshment with a campaign featuring Triptii Dimri. With a fresh take on Limca's signature Lime 'n' Lemoni refreshment, the campaign invited consumers to rediscover the charm and revitalizing rush that only a Limca moment can deliver.
Vinay Nair, Vice President, Franchise Operations, Developing Markets, Coca-Cola India and Southwest Asia, said 'Our goal has always been to build brands that go beyond the product – brands that become part of daily life and collective memory. And Limca's story is one of resilience, reinvention, and a pursuit of excellence. Our success is anchored in a simple but powerful playbook – innovating products that cater to evolving consumer needs, expanding distribution to both urban and rural India, and executing marketing campaigns that connect passion and purpose. We are excited to continue this momentum and deliver long-term value to millions of our consumers.'
As India's lifestyle evolves, so does Limca. In 2024, Limca entered the advanced hydration category introducing Limca GlucoCharge, a functional beverage enriched with glucose and electrolytes, designed to meet the needs of today's active consumers. The launch campaign, featuring Olympic gold medalist Neeraj Chopra, inspired millions with its message of perseverance that resonate with both athletes and everyday heroes.
This commitment to excellence is not limited to the sports field. It forms the very ethos of Limca – a brand that has always believed in recognizing and celebrating extraordinary Indian achievements. This belief is embodied in the Limca Book of Records, launched in 1990 as an extension of the brand's philosophy. Whether it's sporting milestones or artistic achievements, the Book continues to inspire a nation to dream bigger.
As Limca continues to innovate and connect with new generations, its legacy as India's most loved lemon-lime beverage remains stronger than ever, driving growth and refreshing millions across the country.

America's Small Businesses Rally, Telling Congress: Protect SCORE's Funding
Tens of thousands voice support for nonprofit that has helped 17 million small businesses start and grow. WASHINGTON, June 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- What's good for small business is good for America, and America's small business community is urging Congress to protect funding for SCORE, the nation's largest network of volunteer, expert business mentors. Tens of thousands have already responded to SCORE's call to action after President Trump's FY26 Discretionary Budget Request, released on May 2, proposed the elimination of the nonprofit's $17 million in federal funding. "We are grateful for the incredible response we have received so far from supporters, and call on Congress to heed their messages and protect SCORE's funding," said SCORE CEO Bridget Weston. "For 61 years, SCORE has played a powerful role in the small business ecosystem. With over 10,000 volunteer mentors nationwide, SCORE's ability to provide free, expert business advice to 300,000 entrepreneurs a year would not be possible without federal support." Following SCORE's urgent call to action, America's small business community has rallied, generating nearly 50,000 letters to Congress, sharing #StandWithSCORE posts on social media, and inspiring impassioned testimonials from entrepreneurs, volunteers and supporters. From entrepreneurs SCORE has helped: "At one of my lowest points, I found hope—and it came in the form of the SBA and SCORE in Omaha, Nebraska. They took what I did know and polished it, taught me what I didn't, and helped kickstart my flourish as an entrepreneur. That moment changed the course of my life." – SCORE client Carlotta "Lottie" Jackson-Kelly, Vital Defense & Prevention "When I first discovered SCORE, I was ecstatic and grateful for all the resources that were so readily available at my fingertips. From live and virtual workshops to the ability to get paired with a mentor, it's a dream for anyone looking to learn, grow and build something meaningful." – SCORE client Christina Kolokotroni, RVRIE studio From business experts who volunteer with SCORE: "When you see a business that is shuttered after a year or two of struggling, they most likely started with a great idea, lots of passion and enthusiasm, but without mentoring. When you see a small business that is flourishing, expanding, demonstrating creative marketing and pivoting to meet constantly changing needs, they have most likely been mentored by a SCORE volunteer." – SCORE mentor Marc Goldberg, former oil/gas CEO, author and small business founder "SCORE is not just a cost-effective use of federal funds—it is an economic catalyst. The return on investment is indisputable. For every federal dollar appropriated, SCORE returns a measurable impact in the form of job creation, small business starts, and local economic stimulation." – SCORE volunteer David Mortaz, AI entrepreneur and angel investor From SCORE's community partners and supporters: "Throughout the years, we at SBDC have witnessed firsthand how SCORE's devoted mentors have guided countless individuals through the challenging journey of entrepreneurship, offering wisdom, encouragement and expertise that no textbook could provide." – Texas State University Small Business Development Center "SCORE is incredibly supportive of our Chamber, our members, and our community as a whole. Please consider sending a message to help this volunteer, nonprofit organization continue its impactful work." – Lebanon Valley (Pa.) Chamber of Commerce "SCORE has long been a trusted ally for business owners navigating the challenges of entrepreneurship. Through one-on-one mentoring and accessible business resources, SCORE helps transform vision into strategy and ambition into action." – Jen Earle, CEO, National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO) "SCORE has been a treasured friend and partner of FranNet's for over 30 years. The work that this organization does is amazing." – Jania Bailey, CEO of FranNet, franchise consulting firm "With 99.9% of U.S. businesses being small, it's not hard to see why SCORE has supported more than 17 million entrepreneurs in achieving their dreams…American small business owners count on SCORE volunteers to help them succeed." – U.S. Black Chambers, Inc. (USBC) "SCORE's volunteer mentors empower women business owners with the tools, knowledge, and support they need to grow, create jobs and strengthen their communities. We are proud to champion SCORE's mission and impact." – Angela Dingle, President & CEO, Women Impacting Public Policy (WIPP) SCORE continues to call on small business owners, mentors and supporters nationwide to contact Congress with one clear message: Protect SCORE. Protect American small businesses. CLICK HERE to take action now. This campaign is funded exclusively by the SCORE Foundation, without the use of federal funds. About SCORE Since 1964, SCORE has helped more than 17 million entrepreneurs start, grow or successfully exit a business. SCORE's 10,000 volunteers provide free, expert mentoring, resources and education in all 50 U.S. states and territories.

India explores creation of home-grown Big Four consulting firms
The Indian government is considering the establishment of home-grown consulting firms to rival the Big Four—Deloitte, PwC, EY, and KPMG, reported Moneycontrol citing government sources. The move is reportedly a bid to lessen dependence on foreign advisory firms and foster global capabilities in the professional services sector. A high-level meeting, chaired by Shaktikanta Das, principal secretary to the Prime Minister, has been scheduled for 5 June 2025, to deliberate on this initiative. The meeting will feature a presentation by Sanjeev Sanyal, a member of the Economic Advisory Council to the prime minister (EAC-PM), to evaluate the feasibility and devise a roadmap for creating Indian consulting majors with global standing. This initiative is expected to spark a broader conversation within the government on how to cultivate scale, quality, and competitiveness among Indian consulting firms. The context for this move is the growth of the Indian arms of the Big Four, which have seen their revenues soar, driven by demand from mid-market clients and government contracts. For the fiscal year 24, these firms reported a combined revenue of Rs388bn ($4.52bn) and are projected to exceed Rs450bn in FY25, outpacing the growth of some of their multinational parent companies. Government-related assignments, including project management, financial advice, support in disinvestment, PSU stake sales, and policy advice, have significantly contributed to this growth. 'These firms have become deeply embedded in the functioning of government and PSUs. The next logical step is to explore whether India can create its own champions in this space', Moneycontrol reported citing a source. The aspiration to build a domestic counterpart to the Big Four aligns with the government's broader vision of strategic self-reliance, particularly in areas such as tax consulting, digital governance, and infrastructure planning. The meeting is anticipated to outline potential policy interventions that could facilitate the scaling up of Indian players through reforms or targeted incentives for knowledge services. The sources stated: 'This isn't just about creating competition to the Big Four. It's about recognising consulting as an important industry.' India's professional services sector has seen significant evolution over the past decade, with digital adoption, expanding financial markets, and complex regulatory compliance needs driving growth. While the Big Four dominate the audit and advisory space, India also has mid-sized players like Grant Thornton Bharat, BDO India, and domestic firms such as Nangia Andersen and Dhruva Advisors.
