New Delhi, March 7 (TNA) Limca, Coca-Cola India’s homegrown heritage brand, has announced the launch of the 33rd edition of India’s longest-running record and reference book, Limca Book of Records. Continuing its theme of 'India at her Best’, the 2024 edition is a veritable chronicle of the country’s achievements in 2023 and those that have stood steadfast over the years. True to its legacy of pioneering an archive of Indian records, it features a comprehensive collection of feats of extraordinary tenacity, stories of stunning performances and triumphs of never-say-die achievers.

The book puts out the best Indian real-life stories of perseverance, patience, and performances. From a recap of the record-breaking show at the Asian Games 2022 to the highlights of the newly designed Sansad Bhavan, the book celebrates India’s headlining achievements.

Showcasing a diverse set of records ranging from medical marvels to technological breakthroughs, from athletic triumphs to architectural feats, and from a rich literary landscape to community endeavors, the book reflects an inspiring narration of purpose and passion.
