It made the announcement through a 30-second ad and highlights how crucial this summer period is for beverage brands. India is expected to face a very hot summer so several beverage brands have begun advertising early this year in February than post-Holi in March.  

They include Coca-Cola, Mirinda, Sprite, Thums Up, Appy Fizz, and Maaza, amongst more. And while India is going through its second-ever cola ways right now, a volume hike came as a surprise.

Pepsi directly competes with Coca-Cola which retails a 250ml bottle for Rs 20, so did Pepsi till its fresh announcement. A major reason for this price shuffle may point to Reliance-owned Campa Cola and its aggressive pricing strategy of Rs 10.
