Spring water bottles contain natural spring/mineral water — sourced from mountain springs with dissolved minerals. Popular India brands: Himalayan (Coca-Cola, TDS ~170), Vedica (Tata, TDS ~150), Evian (imported, TDS ~309). India price: ₹40–120 per bottle (250ml–1L). All are single-use PET. For daily hydration, a reusable insulated steel bottle with RO+mineraliser filtered water delivers similar mineral content at a fraction of the cost + environmental impact.
