Tobacco in Sri Lanka

Tobacco volume sales returned to growth in Sri Lanka in 2024 after a significant decline in the previous year. Value sales rose significantly faster than volumes during 2024 as a result of the government's more aggressive tax policies, which have increased costs and decreased demand. Ceylon Tobacco Company (CTC) continues to hold monopoly status in the market, with the John Player Gold Leaf brand dominating.
