Mount Shivalik has brewing operations in Haryana and the Punjab region.

Rajiv Bali, chairman emeritus of Mount Shivalik and a member of the family that has run the business for 40 years, says Molson Coors brings expertise and operational efficiency to grow further in India.

The companies have had a contract brewing and distribution partnership that started in 2013.

Molson Coors entered the Indian market in 2011 when it bought control of Cobra India, which has one brewery.
