Dabur initiates legal action against Marico Ltd.

According to the media reports, FMCG company Dabur has initiated a legal complaint against Marico and its Directors before Delhi High Court as the company has failed to follow the the court's order to change its honey packaging, which was claimed to be similiar to others by Dabur.

This issue started last year when Marico had launched Saffola Honey and Dabur filed a complaint against Marico Ltd in the Delhi High Court stating that it had intimated the shape of the bottle, its yellow cap, dome-shaped label, usage of honeycombs on the label and other things too. 

The Marico Ltd's Saffola Honey bottle was titled with Saffola but still the court said that these similarities can confuse the buyer’s minds.

The next hearing of the case has been listed on July 14, 2021.
