Tea Board of India has initiated promotional efforts with an estimated expenditure of Rs 54 crore in order to increase per capita consumption of tea. The board has allocated Rs 29 crore for domestic promotion and Rs 25 crore for Tea Boutiques abroad. There is lack of awareness about the positive health benefits of tea. Tea is perceived to be an addictive beverage and in order to increase its popularity amongst the youth, the board is in the process of formulating massive domestic promotional campaigns. The promotional efforts are seen through participation in trade exhibitions, global seminars.
