Dabur India Limited moved the Delhi High Court earlier in August challenging a Food Safety and Standards Authority of India order directing it to immediately stop selling food products carrying claims such as '100% Pure', '100% Natural', '100% Purity Guaranteed' and '100% Organic', as part of FSSAI's broader crackdown on absolute claims that may create an exaggerated impression of purity or quality.

Dabur India Ltd named Herjit S Bhalla as CEO, India Business effective April 2026 and elevated Mohit Malhotra to Global CEO, formally splitting India and global mandates, with Bhalla bringing over 25 years of experience across Unilever, Metro Cash & Carry and Hershey.

Dabur India Limited changed its product labelling after the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India issued notices for misleading labels, claims and advertisements, as part of a wider enforcement drive questioning terms such as healthy, natural, fresh, 100% and no added sugar.

Dabur India Limited took price increases across parts of its portfolio and used pack-size changes to offset crude-linked input costs. The company reported Q1 FY27 consolidated net profit rose 15% to Rs 591 crore on revenue of Rs 3,764 crore, up 10.6%, with India FMCG growth of 9.5% and volume growth of 5%; hair-oil value grew 18% with 8% volume growth, half driven by pricing.

Dabur India Ltd delivered a 60 bps margin improvement in Q1FY27 despite input-cost volatility, highlighted by LKP Securities as showing larger players managing pressure reasonably well. LKP Securities also cited Dabur India Ltd as offering a balanced growth profile.
