Delhi High Court to Decide on Jurisdiction in Vimal Elaichi Show-Cause Notices Case
The Delhi High Court will deliver its order on September 14 regarding its jurisdiction to hear a plea by PB Agro LLP, makers of Vimal Elaichi. The plea seeks to quash show-cause notices issued by the Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration to brand ambassadors Shah Rukh Khan, Ajay Devgn, and Tiger Shroff. The notices allege that advertisements for Vimal Elaichi constitute surrogate promotion of Vimal Pan Masala, a product banned in Maharashtra. PB Agro LLP contends the ads comply with laws and challenges the FDA's jurisdiction and procedural approach.
