Every financial year the Rajasthan Excise Department sets the rules that decide how you get a shop, what you must lift, and what you pay. Here is what actually matters for a theka owner — and how to stay compliant without drowning in registers.
The annual Rajasthan Excise Policy fixes your licence fee, the minimum guarantee quota (MGQ) you must lift, excise duty and additional levies, the composite-shop structure (English + country liquor), and how shops are allotted — now largely through online e-auction. It is the rulebook your whole year runs on.
Your MGQ commitment, monthly lifting from RSBCL and RSGSM, duty and permit fees all flow from the policy. Fall short on guarantee lifting and you still carry the shortfall; misread duty and your margin quietly leaks. Tracking all this on paper is exactly where most shops lose money.
ApnaTheka tracks your lifting against MGQ, captures excise duty and permit fees on every GRN, locks billing to the approved MRP, and posts everything into double-entry books — so you always know exactly where you stand against the policy, in real time.
