PepsiCo and Monster Beverage challenge India's energy drink label ban

PepsiCo and Monster Beverage have filed a legal challenge against a recent Indian government directive. The directive bans the sale of their products under the 'energy drink' classification. The companies argue the rule unfairly targets them while similar caffeine-based drinks are sold as tea or coffee. The case is currently before the Delhi High Court, which has issued notices to the government for a response.
