14th August Independence Day: Hamdard - pioneer in its field
Hamdard was founded on this timeless principle – a commitment to serve humanity through knowledge, integrity, and the wisdom of nature by Hakim Hafiz Abdul Majeed. Rooted in the science of traditional healing and guided by the needs of modern life, Hamdard bridges generations of wellness with a promise of purity and purpose. From trusted formulations to holistic remedies, every product reflects its dedication to health, balance, and well-being. Hakim Hafiz Abdul Majeed's youngest son, Hakim Mohammed Said, in Pakistan, observed that healthcare cannot be properly managed without the 'triumvirate' of the doctors, hakims, and the pharmacists. That is why he took Unani (Graeco-Arab) traditional eastern herbal medicine into the modern age - along with his commitment to philanthropy. Hamdard uses modern methods of manufacture, quality control, packaging, and research. Perhaps its most well-known product is 'RoohAfza' - a global iconic drink with many awards to its name and many more other well-known products. In addition, it has introduced variations on the product, like 'DoodhRoohAfza' - a ready-mixed-with-milk drink - and 'Go' -- a carbonated- ready-to-drink version of it - not to mention 'RoohSindhu' inspired by Thadal, the traditional drink of the province of Sindh. Then new additions include 'RoohAfza Lemon' and 'Rooh Melon', and 'RoohSubz', each making its own impact. Shaheed Hakim Mohammed Said saw the future of Pakistan in its children. That is why he launched 'Monthly HamdardNaunehal', the most widely circulated children's magazine in the country, and also held Naunehal Assemblies, which give young voices a forum in which to be heard on important topics. The Naunehal product range not only consists of self-reliant quality products, but help to give self-reliance to nervous young mothers: There's 'Naunehal Herbal Gripewater', 'Naunehal Colic Drops', 'Naunehal Nappy Cream', 'Naunehal Baby Soap', 'Naunehal Toothpaste' (bubble gum), 'Naunehal Chest and Foot Rub', and 'Naunehal Baby Oil'. Another top brand is 'Hamdard Safi', and a whole range of personal and beauty care products, such as 'Safi Facial Mask', 'Safi Face Wash' (Neem and Aloe Vera), and 'Safi Acne Cream'. Hamdard's Pharmacopoeia of Unani formulations number over 500, adapting local manufacturing to modern global countrywide network of free Matabs or clinics, as well as free Mobile Dispensaries, each with a registered Hakim, offer free diagnoses even where hospitals are out of reach, and provide herbal medicines at reasonable costs. All profits are used to run various educational institutions and philanthropic endeavours, all over the country. Shaheed Hakim Mohammed Said played an active role in getting global organizations, like The World Health Organization (WHO), to recognize Alternative Medicine as a real and relevant fact. Pakistan is a country where it is fully active. In addition, Hakim Said also introduced a forum where different practitioners could gather and hold conferences and share ideas -- all in an effort to modernize and make scientific traditional eastern herbal medicine. Today, Hamdard continues to uphold its legacy of healing by combining time-honored herbal knowledge with modern innovation. With a steadfast focus on purity, efficacy, and ethical practices, the company remains dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for individuals around the world. As it moves forward, Hamdard remains committed to its mission of delivering trusted wellness solutions rooted in nature and guided by tradition. Copyright Business Recorder, 2025

Patanjali Foods rejects reports of Centre's notice to Ayurved division: ‘Examining appropriate action'
Patanjali Foods Ltd on Sunday junked reports of Patanjali Ayurved Limited receiving notice from the Ministry of Corporate affairs, saying it has not received any communication. In a stock exchange filing, Patanjali Foods said its sister concern Patanjali Ayurved is not being investigated by the Centre. 'Pursuant to Regulation 30(11) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, based on confirmation from Patanjali Ayurved Limited, we may clarify that Patanjali Ayurved Limited has not received any communication from Ministry of Corporate Affairs('MCA') for the proposed investigation by MCA as appearing in mainstream media,' the filing noted. Patanjali Ayurved is exploring legal options to address the issue, the company said. 'Their legal counsels are examining appropriate action in this regard,' Patanjali Foods said. In a report on May 30, Bloomberg reported that yoga guru Baba Ramdev's company Patanjali Ayurved is under the scrutiny of Centre due to 'suspicious' activities. The Centre has asked Patanjali Ayurved to explain some transactions deemed suspicious, according to the report quoting people familiar with the matter. As per the report quoting unnamed sources, the Union Ministry of Corporate Affairs sent a notice to the company after the federal economic intelligence wing found transactions it said was abnormal and dubious. The sources quoted by Bloomberg did not however reveal the exact amount of transactions involved in the case. They cited early stages of investigation as the reason. The company will have about two months to respond to the notice, according to the report. The corporate affairs ministry will further confirm if the company committed any corporate governance breaches and fund diversion. While Patanjali Ayurved is a closely held company, its unit Patanjali Foods Ltd. is publicly traded. Patanjali's face, Yoga Guru Ramdev, found himself in a soup earlier this year regarding some controversial comments. On May 2, Ramdev gave an undertaking in the Delhi High Court saying he will not issue any disparaging statement or publish on social media, posts similar to his "sharbat jihad" remark against Hamdard's Rooh Afza. A similar undertaking was also tendered by Ramdev's Patanjali Foods Ltd. The court passed the order while dealing with a lawsuit by Hamdard National Foundation India against Ramdev and his Patanjali Foods Ltd over the controversial remarks. Hamdard claimed while promoting Patanjali's "gulab sharbat", Ramdev alleged the money earned from Hamdard's Rooh Afza was used to build madrasas and mosques.

'Sharbat Jihad' row: Delhi HC closes suit against Ramdev, Patanjali (Lead)
HighlightsThe Delhi High Court closed a suit by Hamdard Laboratories seeking the removal of Baba Ramdev's controversial videos that linked the company's drink Rooh Afza with 'Sharbat Jihad'. Baba Ramdev's counsel agreed to remove objectionable videos after the court warned of contempt proceedings against him for violating previous undertakings. Senior Advocate Mukul Rohatgi, representing Hamdard, emphasized that videos promoting communal slurs should not be permitted, referring to past controversies involving Ramdev's misleading advertisements. The Delhi High Court on Friday closed a suit filed by pharmaceutical and food company Hamdard seeking the removal of Patanjali founder Baba Ramdev's controversial videos purportedly linking the company's popular drink Rooh Afza with 'Sharbat Jihad'. A single-judge Bench of Justice Amit Bansal took note of the affidavit filed by Yoga guru Ramdev and Patanjali stating that the objectionable videos have been pulled down from all social media platforms. Last week, the Justice Bansal-led Bench reprimanded Ramdev after it was apprised that he has posted another objectionable video against Hamdard despite his previous undertaking that he would not issue such statements, advertisements and social media posts in future. Remarking that the fresh video was prima facie contemptuous, the Delhi High Court had indicated that it would issue a contempt notice to Ramdev, apart from seeking his presence. Anticipating an adverse order, Ramdev's counsel agreed before the Justice Bansal-led Bench to pull down the objectionable portions within 24 hours on all social media platforms. Ramdev, while promoting Patanjali's 'Gulab Sharbat', claimed that Rooh Afza's parent company, Hamdard, was using its gains to build mosques and madrasas. Later, he defended his speech, saying that he did not mention any brand or community. In an earlier hearing on Hamdard's application seeking an injunction concerning a previous video of Ramdev in which he had reportedly linked Rooh Afza with 'Sharbat Jihad', the Delhi HC had slammed the Yoga guru for using communal slurs. "It shocks the conscience of the court. This is indefensible," Justice Bansal had said. After the Delhi HC signalled passing a strong order, Ramadev's counsel agreed to pull down the controversial video and advertisements. It had asked Ramdev to file an undertaking on affidavit that he would not issue such statements, advertisements and social media posts in future, posting the matter for further hearing on May 1. Senior Advocate Mukul Rohatgi, representing Hamdard, said that such videos should not be allowed "even for a moment", adding that Ramdev had earlier attacked herbal health company Himalaya because it is also owned by a Muslim. Rohatgi referred to the contempt proceedings initiated by the Supreme Court against Ramdev and Patanjali Ayurved's Managing Director, Acharya Balakrishna, over the continued publication of misleading advertisements and targeting allopathy. In August last year, the duo was discharged of contempt of court notice in view of the apology tendered personally before the apex court and the public apology published by Patanjali in leading newspapers

Delhi HC closes Hamdard's lawsuit against Ramdev
The Delhi high court on Friday closed the trademark disparagement lawsuit after Yoga instructor and entrepreneur Ramdev told the court that the video containing his remarks of 'sharbat jihad' on Hamdard's Rooh Afza has been taken down from all his social media accounts. Justice Amit Bansal passed the order while dealing with the lawsuit by Hamdard National Foundation India against Ramdev and his Patanjali Foods Ltd over the controversial remarks. Hamdard had sought for a permanent injunction restraining Patanjali from infringing and disparaging its trademark, along with damages up to ₹2 crore. On Friday, Justice Bansal closed the lawsuit after going through the undertakings of Ramdev and Patanjali in their affidavits pledging not to make any statements, social media posts or disparaging videos or advertisements in future regarding Hamdard's popular drink Rooh Afza. The averments in their affidavits were binding on Ramdev and Patanjali, the court remarked. In its petition, Hamdard said that while promoting Patanjali's 'gulab sharbat', Ramdev alleged the money earned from Hamdard's Rooh Afza was used to build madrasas and mosques. On April 22, the court said that Ramdev's remark was indefensible and shook its conscience, prompting the Yoga exponent to assure he would immediately take down the related videos and social media posts. The court asked Ramdev and Patanjali to file their undertaking in affidavits. Days later, however, Hamdard during a hearing on May 1 pointed out that Ramdev had made the same remarks in yet another video, showing no remorse for his conduct. Following the court's reprimand, Ramdev agreed to take down the offending portions of the new video within 24 hours. On May 2, Ramdev and Patanjali agreed to file an affidavit assuring they would not make any statements in future regarding Hamdard's product and sought the closure of the lawsuit. The court had posted the matter to Friday.
