Dabur India Limited has received a penalty of INR 4,00,000 from the Additional District Magistrate, Almora. The penalty relates to an alleged contravention of Section 26 and Section 27 of the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006 concerning labelling of one of the company's products. The company has received the order on April 10, 2026. Dabur states the demand is not maintainable and plans to file an appeal before the 1st Appellate Authority. The company asserts there is no impact on its financial, operational, or other activities and believes it has strong merits to obtain a favorable order in higher forums.
The penalty amount of INR 4 lakh is relatively small for a company of Dabur's size and the company has indicated it will appeal, suggesting minimal near-term shareholder impact. However, an adverse outcome in the appeal could have minor reputational implications related to product labelling compliance.
