Why Fanta in UK Has Far Less Sugar Than the Version Sold in India

A can of Fanta sold in the United Kingdom contains only 63 calories, while the same drink sold in India has roughly three times the sugar content. This stark difference has drawn attention from nutrition experts, prompting debate about varying product standards across markets. The UK introduced a sugar tax, formally known as the Soft Drinks Industry Levy, which incentivised beverage companies to significantly reduce sugar in their products. No equivalent policy exists in India, meaning manufacturers face little financial pressure to reformulate high-sugar drinks. Experts argue that such regulatory differences directly explain why the same branded product can have vastly different nutritional profiles depending on the country of sale.
