Smirnoff is a globally recognised vodka brand under Diageo, known for its wide portfolio: from standard “plain” vodkas, triple‐distilled and premium offerings, to flavour variations like Orange, Green Apple, Citrus, Espresso, Vanilla, etc. In Karnataka (including Bangalore), the price is determined officially by government/regulatory bodies (Karnataka State Beverages Corporation Ltd or the excise department) plus MRP printed on bottles. Taxes, excise duties, and revisions often influence the change in price.
In this article we explore the current prices (as of 2025) of different Smirnoff vodkas in Bangalore by variant and common package sizes (180 ml, 375 ml, 750 ml, sometimes 1 litre), along with notes on flavour or distinguishing factors.
Main Variants with Prices & Notes
Here are key Smirnoff variants and their current Bangalore/Karnataka MRPs (or government rate card values), with flavour/distinguishing notes. Focus is on 180 ml, 375 ml, 750 ml; 1 litres.
1. Smirnoff Triple Distilled Vodka (Plain / Standard)
- Flavour / Notes: This is the standard plain vodka from Smirnoff’s triple‐distilled line, without flavour infusions. It is higher in purity and often priced higher due to additional distillation steps.
- Pack sizes & Prices:
- 750 ml – ~ INR 2,188
- 375 ml – ~ INR 1,098
- 180 ml – ~ INR 540
- Notes: As one of the more premium plain vodka options, this is often used where “clean finish” is important. Because of the triple distillation, cost is significantly more than many flavoured counterparts. Many people prefer this for mixing or for more refined drinking.
2. Smirnoff Flavoured Vodkas (Standard Flair)
Here are several of the flavour variants (Green Apple, Orange, Vanilla, Citrus, etc.) that are not the triple-distilled premium line but standard flavoured vodkas. These tend to be cheaper than the premium triple-distilled version.
- Smirnoff Green Apple Flavoured Vodka
- 750 ml – ~ INR 1,220
- 375 ml – ~ INR 610
- 180 ml – ~ INR 295
- Smirnoff Orange Flavoured Vodka
- 750 ml – ~ INR 1,220
- 375 ml – ~ INR 610
- 180 ml – ~ INR 295
- Smirnoff Citrus / Citrus Triple Distilled / Citrus Twist etc.
- There are multiple citrus‐type variants. Standard citrus flavoured (non-premium) tend to be in the INR 1,200–1,300 for 750 ml range. For triple distilled citrus the price is much higher.
3. Smirnoff Premium / Triple-Distilled Flavoured Vodkas
These are flavour variants but from the triple distilled line, so more expensive.
- Smirnoff Green Apple Triple Distilled Vodka
- 750 ml – ~ INR 2,256

- 180 ml – ~ INR 546

Notes & Observations
- In many cases, the standard flavoured variants are much cheaper than triple distilled ones – sometimes less than half the premium price.
- The price difference between 750 ml and 180 ml is proportionally large (per ml cost is higher in smaller pack sizes), as is typical.
- “Export Strength” and special bottles may have different pricing structures.
- The INR 973 for 1,000 ml Export Strength is relatively “budget” compared to triple-distilled flavours.
Summing Up
The Smirnoff price in Bangalore (2025) varies widely depending on the variant and pack size. While the plain triple-distilled vodka sits at the premium end (INR 2,188 for 750 ml), the flavoured vodkas like Green Apple, Orange, or Espresso are more affordable at around INR 1,220 for the same size. Smaller 180 ml and 375 ml packs make Smirnoff accessible at lower entry prices, while triple-distilled flavoured options nearly double the cost. With its mix of purity, variety, and global reputation, Smirnoff remains a popular vodka choice across Bangalore’s bars, restaurants, and homes.
