The All India Distillers’ Association (AIDA), established in 1953, is among the oldest and most respected industry associations in India, dedicated to safeguarding and advancing the interests of its members.

Over the decades, AIDA has undertaken pioneering initiatives across the ethanol and alcohol distillery sectors and remains the only association representing Grain-based and Molasses-based ethanol manufacturers, along with potable alcohol producers.
