Executive summary
This report asked 25 questions an Indian shopper would ask an AI engine about tea, coffee, soft drinks, juices, water and malted drinks. The answers produced 375 citations from 242 domains and named 97 organizations, from global cola makers to small tea sellers and regulators.
No drink brand owns this market. FSSAI, the food regulator, leads on 17.6, ahead of Coca-Cola on 16.0 and Horlicks on 15.2. Tata Tea appears on only one question, at rank four, behind Sancha Tea, Sapat and Goodricke.
The sharper finding sits in the sources. Wikipedia is the most cited domain, on 14 of 25 questions. On six of the best brand questions, the brand ranked first publishes its own guide to the best brands, and that guide is the page the engines cite.

Visibility score method: each question ranks five entities. Rank one earns 1.00 point, rank two 0.80, down to 0.20 for rank five. Scores are totalled across 25 questions and divided by 25. Every entity named is ranked, whatever its type.
Type shows what kind of organization each entity is. AI engines name regulators, packaging makers, online grocers, tax platforms and pharmacy chains alongside drink brands. All of them are ranked here, because all of them take up space in the answer.

Categories and why we chose them
We chose five categories that cover what an Indian shopper buys and worries about: tea and coffee, soft and energy drinks, juices and water, malted drinks for children and adults, and the practical side of price, tax, labels and complaints.
| # | Category name | Reason for selection |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Tea and coffee | Tea and coffee are bought by almost every Indian household, often daily. The questions are about choice, where loyalty is weak and a list of the best brands can move a shopper, so they force the engines to name specific tea and coffee brands. |
| 2 | Soft drinks and energy drinks | Soft drinks carry the biggest marketing budgets in the category, and a price war has run since Campa Cola returned. Questions on popularity, sugar free options, energy drinks, cheaper colas and electrolyte drinks show whether that spending reaches the answers. |
| 3 | Juices and packaged water | Juice and bottled water are bought on trust, since the shopper cannot see inside the pack. Questions on the best brands, no added sugar, coconut water and spotting genuine water test whether engines point to brands, regulators or labels. |
| 4 | Health and malted drinks | Malted drinks are bought by parents for children, and the category lost its health drink label in 2024 after questions over sugar. These questions show how engines handle a claim the government has already challenged, and who they name. |
| 5 | Buying, price and safety | Every drink purchase touches price, tax and safety. Questions on the cheapest place to buy, GST, checking a license, complaining about a spoiled drink and recyclable packs test whether engines send shoppers to official channels or to intermediaries. |

Question 4.5
Why were Bournvita and similar drinks taken out of the health drink category in India?
Bournvita leads, ahead of Horlicks, HUL, Boost and FSSAI. In April 2024 the Commerce Ministry told online stores to move these drinks out of the health drinks category, because the term is not defined in food law. HUL then renamed its category.
