BE HAPPY KEEP HAPPY

Cigarettes should be cheaper in AUH.

Liquor I am not sure .. You should be able to avail liquor in India Duty Free before exiting the Airport ..my guess is at the same price that you would get in TOR/AUH.

Duty Free Allowance since 1st April 2016 for Passengers Arriving into India.

AMEDABAD: If you are flying abroad from Ahmedabad airport by this month end, and wish to buy some drinks, then you will be disappointed. The only duty free shop in the state which sells liquor in departure area of international terminal of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport is likely to close by June 20.
Escalating rent, less number of travelers and few new flights have forced Flamingo International to close its duty free shop in departure area. However, the company will continue to run its shop in arrival area, but it claims that sale of liquor in that shop is miniscule. Flamingo has been operating the duty free shop for the last decade at Ahmedabad airport.

GANDHINAGAR: Now, tourists coming to Gujarat can say 'bottoms up' to this! The state government in its bid to make flow of liquor easier for visitors has started issuing permits at the Ahmedabad airport itself.

Inbound duty-free[edit]
Some countries, including Australia, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, China, Iceland, India, Jamaica, Kenya, Lebanon, Malaysia, New Zealand, Norway, Panama, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Switzerland, the United Arab Emirates, Uzbekistan, Taiwan and Turkey have inwards duty-free facilities, where arriving passengers can purchase duty-free items immediately before going through customs. This not only saves the inconvenience of having to carry these items around the world but also solves the security problem mentioned above. Other countries such as Canada and Sweden have been considering duty-free on arrival.

A bottle of SPIRIT 375 ml in volume, A PINT TO BE exact, will cost you $52 in the open market here in Canada. The duty on it will be $41.55. The other profit margin and sale details are left to the retailer.

Long time ago, Duty Free WAS Duty Free. Now it is no longer feels that way. It was a promotional give away to the Brewers and also Cigarette Companies. Then joined the others to it, jewelers, watch makers, Chocolate companies, perfume makers and pen companies and Camera manufacturers too. Now we all are at the mercy of the Airport controls and the Government that runs them. They all say that the rents are TOO MUCH. Do tell me one more time. Try and get a picture post Card in side an Airport. You might as well take a picture on your phone and mail it. fh.

On your way to India, when you stop at Abu Dhabi, you can buy alcohol . It is cheaper than TORONTO or USA duty free plus there is a special DUTY FREE special package like 2 bottles + a 200 ml premium whiskly free for same price and in special packaging .

I recently went to India via Abudhabi and bought the special package on both ways . ie. to India and on my way back to canada.

the rates are very cheap
