History
Excise Department is one of the oldest Departments in the
State, and it contributes a major share of the State Revenue.
The word ABKARI derived from Persian (abkara from karbusiness) strengers Persian English Dictionary defines it as
tax on the manufacture and sale of Spirituous liquors and
intoxicating drugs. According to the glossary of judicial and
revenue terms it means revenue derived from duties levied on
the manufacture and sale intoxicating drugs whether in
substance, infusion, extract as opium, charas, etc.
After the formation of the State of Kerala, it was noticed that
different Abkari Acts were in force in different parts of the
State, namely; Travancore Abkari Act for Travancore, Cochin
Abkari Act for Cochin, Madras Abkari Act for Malabar.
Existence of the different Acts created much practical
difficulties and a unified Act for the whole of the state became
necessary. Therefore Government decided to extent the Cochin
Abkari Act for the whole of the state with necessary
amendments. The Cochin Abkari Act I of 1077 was renamed
as the Abkari Act I of 1077 and was extended to the whole of
the state with effect from 11.05.1967. Various amendments
were made in the Abkari Act from time to time.
The original Act viz., the Cochin Abkari Act was passed by His
Highness the Maharaja of Cochin on the 5 th day of August
1902, corresponding to 31st day of Karkadagom 1077.
