NEW DELHI: The Delhi high court on Thursday stopped Patanjali from publishing or broadcasting advertisements that allegedly criticise Dabur Chyawanprash .
Justice Mini Pushkarna passed the order while hearing interim applications filed by Dabur . The court will take up the matter again on July 14.
The issue began after Patanjali aired an advertisement featuring its founder, Swami Ramdev , Bar & Bench reported. In the ad, he is seen questioning the authenticity of other Chyawanprash products available in the market.
The advertisement says: " Jinko Ayurved aur Vedo ka gyaan nahi, Charak, Sushrut, Dhanwantari aur Chyawanrishi ke parampara mei ‘original’ Chyawanprash kaise bana payenge?"
Dabur also raised objections to parts of the advertisement where a 40-herb Chyawanprash was referred to as "ordinary."
Dabur argued that this was a clear reference to its product, which claims to contain "40+ herbs" and has a market share of over 60 per cent in the Chyawanprash segment. According to Dabur, the statements amounted to three types of disparagement — misrepresenting Patanjali's own formula, questioning Dabur’s link to Ayurvedic tradition, and portraying Dabur’s product as inferior.
