09 July 2024 For the Financial Year 2022-23, Maharashtra Value Added Tax (MVAT) on liquor served in restaurants depends on whether the liquor is served for consumption on the premises or for takeaway.

1. **Liquor Served for Consumption on Premises**:
- Liquor served for consumption on the premises of a restaurant is subject to MVAT at the rate of **VAT/CST** applicable on the liquor at the time of sale. The rate can vary based on the type of liquor (e.g., beer, wine, spirits).

2. **Liquor Sold for Takeaway**:
- If liquor is sold for takeaway (i.e., not consumed on the premises), it is typically subject to VAT at the applicable rate.

It's important to note that specific rates can vary based on the type of liquor and any updates or changes made by the Maharashtra government. For accurate and up-to-date information, it's recommended to check the latest notifications or consult with a tax advisor familiar with Maharashtra VAT laws.
