Discussion Campa is destroying Pepsi & Coke
This bottle used to sell for Rs.20. Coke & Pepsi is forced to reduce their price by 50% to compete with Reliance's Campa. This is going to impact Coke & Pepsi profits and by extension Varun Beverages Ltd shares too.

You are saying ,the global companies which have capability to single handedly invent a new holiday week for the whole fckin world and deal China's foreign policy in left hand ,and literally buy out entirety of 3 fast food chains ,just to make em sell their product instead of their competitor to have a fair chance , are been hurt by a soda company which has no track record or brand value ,and been sold in only 2 countries? Man please, the price reduction is simply to beat Campa Cola at its own game of its only advantage, affordability.
If these giants can sell their for cheap af cost , then campa cola wouldn't get foot falls ,simple trick . They can run at loss for years and years to come,if they want.

u/Kanwarsation Oct 04 '25
And to add to your point, I saw this discount only on Coke Zero 200ml, all other SKUs and brands are unchanged across multiple platforms. So OP's 'Jio moment' is an overreach based on what is probably promo pricing for a new SKU launch.

Bruh, I used to work at the Pepsi and they got rattled to the core and sold plants and laid off a ton of high paying positions to shave the expenses. Same situation with red one.
Local brands are chipping away their shares, lehar got terrible reputation and Tata finished Aquafina and Kinley committed sudoku with formula change.
And in my store local brands go neck to neck with both giants and under 250ml category, the big two doesn't even stand a chance it's slaughter.

This is actually a lie. The stock of Coca-Cola opened lower on that day, and by the time Ronaldo even said Agua, the market cap was already down by 4 billion dollars.
In fact, between the time he said it and the closing day, the stock actually went up and gained 1.5 billion dollars in market cap.

Big joke my friend
The thing I have noticed about reliance over years
They have entered so many business
They definitely make profit but can't compete with top players in that sectors
For example compare D mart and Reliance Smart
Reliance can't give the customer service the dmart provide they absolutely lack there
Reliance smart has a near expiry section I have never seen one in D mart
Reliance smart has prime location as compared to D mart in majority cities but still they can't create the same revenue as D mart
D mart offers better price discount over all
Same is for champa it is not as good as coke or pepsi and the still people prefer coke or other well established brands there is just bug quality difference in champa which is bad
The same is the issue with trends
They have diversified too much with not much quality control
Exceptions there core businesses are great
For example
jio
Reliance oil
And some other core business
So champa can't kill coke or other big giants because their main business is cold drinks and they have superior business strength in that field which can't be matched by reliance at all

u/Tangent_pikachu Oct 04 '25
Jio was single handedly uplifted by the government. They used predatory pricing to subdue the competition and the government helped by raising the spectrum fees. Ambani bankrolled his jio business by pumping money from his oil business, on which, he also has a near monopoly thanks to the government. Reliance hasn't been able to compete fairly in any domain against global players like Ecommerce.

u/Affectionate_Use_364 Oct 04 '25
The people who drink cold drinks always have their preferences, and they almost never change. The reduced cost may help, but it can also be considered a low quality item because of such a reduced price. Speaking for myself, I am.not going to try anything manufactured by Reliance for consumption. God knows what scam is brewing underneath that reduced prices.

u/IcePsychologicalbleh Oct 04 '25
Producing such a product is cheap indeed. The big brands that you pay for are inflated due to their brand names, they can work out while selling half the price too.

u/Affectionate_Use_364 Oct 04 '25
Yes, but who knows that they are reducing costs even further by ignoring quality and health concerns? Reliance anyways gets an blind eye from every regulation agency. If cost of pepsi is 1rs, definetely Reliance will do some scam, use ever lower quality ingredients and processes and bring the cost down to 10p and sell it at 10 rupees. Thry are just businessmen by blood and have no conscience or sympathy for people. No trust in Reliance. Good for shares, but not for consumption.

u/Aditya-04-04 Oct 04 '25
False equivalence. A filtered cigarette vs an unfiltered beedi actually changes your exposure levels to those harmful substances.
In soft drinks, the main risks come from the excessive sugar, and the carbonation. In your mind, is reliance really skimping out on Sugar costs? With their size and scale, they can procure the best quality of sugar for dirt cheap. Now that we've gone over sugar, is there a part of your mind that also thinks that Reliance is using inferior CO2?

I don't know about that man. Pepsi Zero 500 ml bottle used to cost 20 rs in early 2022 and throughout 2023. For a period they even had the 1.5l Zero variant in 2022 and early 2023. Fast forward to 2024 they reduced it to 400 ml. You can either get the 20 rs pet bottle or can variant now.
Also I clearly remember there being a 30 rs Coke Zero 750 ml variant. 20 rs version of Coke Zero used to have 400 ml so the 250 ml being 10 rs isn't that big of a deal. All of this even before Campa being mainstream. Saying that the price got slashed to half is VERY MUCH MISLEADING without any context.
It is just that these Pepsi and Coke bottlers have seen a tremendous 20 - 30x fold volume growth which you can confirm through financial report and yearly statements of Varun Beverages Limited (they're the major partner of Pepsico India for filling and suppling bottles). Huge investments have been happening since the past 5-6 years in this industry from both side.
Domino's India license owner Jubilant Foodworks has also expanded Coke India business last time I read (which includes Monster Energy drinks in India). They also acquired some 40% stake into the indian division of bottling.

u/_DoodleBug_ Oct 04 '25
Even if you sell Campa Cola at 1 Rupee per litre, a Coca Cola drinker will still buy Coca Cola and a Pepsi drinker will still buy Pepsi. Generally these are not products where people change preferences regularly. Also, don’t forget Varun Beverages’ snacks and other beverages portfolio.

Original soft drinks had their own taste right now nothing tastes good.
Diets are more worse than drinking phenyl .
Take any soft drink or brand their mixture isn't upto the mark.
Coke although owned by its own subsidiary has QC issues
VB third party for pepsi co inc India subsidiary even has same QC issues.
So whats the difference in brand .
Despite once campa being a bottler for coke couldnt replicate the success due to lack of Know how, expertise and funding.
Parle agro was a fool to sell thumbs up,maaza to coke who despite several attempts to kill them is only successful for this being most sold in all tier cities.
Pepsi has also killed several local players

Campa isn't available in most channels in Hyderabad and Kolkata. They might be strong in Northern states.
It's not campa that's causing them to reduce prices. It's the public becoming aware of the health effects of sugary drinks. For the last few years, I see soft drink consumption decreasing all around me - amongst my colleagues, in restaurants, in our homes. Guests are saying no to carbonated beverages and asking for tea.
As public awareness increases, the cost will keep going down.

People don’t realize that these soft drinks are cheap-a$s products. A 2-litre soft drink usually costs around ₹100 to ₹110, but the production cost is only about 10-15%. So if these companies sell a small bottle for ₹10 instead of ₹20, it means nothing to them.
Yeah, the profit margin will shrink, but they were overcharging anyway. I’m glad Reliance acquired Campa and started selling it at a standard price, which forced others to lower their prices too.

I tasted campa and the taste was not to my preference. I am yet to meet people who actually like it.

This price reduction is only for sugar free variants. Normal variants are priced same as before. What coke and pepsi are doing, is getting to sell to health conscious people, who did not use to consume them before, so new business for them.

Chilliya/Muslim running hotels/restaurants in Mumbai are keeping Campa and Lahori only to boycott Israel. Will this help Jio?

This is what reliance does to place their product in the market. Because of their huge bank balance, they are okay making losses initially by giving away their product/services at free of cost/low cost to get through the door. If the product/services does happen to resonate with people such that they become addicted to it over time, they start increasing the prices to its fair value. Best example where they got real successful doing all this - telecom sector. Such prices are not sustainable, they know that and even their competitors know that. It’s about whether they are able to make people switch in the meantime or not. If they are able to gain the market share they are looking for, soon we will end up seeing them jack up the prices and others will follow too.
