The financial prosperity of TASMAC plays a pivotal role in bolstering the revenue streams of the Tamil Nadu government. This revenue infusion significantly aids in funding diverse developmental projects and public welfare schemes in the state.

In Tamil Nadu, a state in southern India celebrated for its vibrant culture and rich heritage, the government-run retail chain TASMAC, which focuses on selling alcoholic beverages, gained attention by announcing a holiday for the year 2024. This considerate choice was made after thorough discussion by state officials to honor the beliefs of the local community who follow particular religious practices prohibiting alcohol consumption on specific sacred occasions.
The state government is aiming to offer essential support to individuals who may have reservations about working on important occasions by introducing this initiative. Furthermore, this deliberate action is anticipated to not only ease any concerns but also cultivate a feeling of cultural solidarity and concord among the varied communities living in Tamil Nadu, encouraging mutual comprehension and inclusivity.

The Tamil Nadu State Marketing Corporation (TASMAC) has revised its schedule of holidays and days off to better serve the public. TASMAC operates two categories of outlets, namely standard and elite, specializing in the retail of alcoholic beverages. The newest TASMAC wine shop in Tamil Nadu is accessible daily from 12 pm to 10 pm, offering a diverse range of wines for customers to savor on both weekdays and weekends. TASMAC outlets are available for customers to buy their desired drinks every day of the week, including Sundays.
