Aiming Rs 1 trillion turnover for Patanjali Group in next 5 years: Ramdev

Patanjali Group is looking to clock a turnover of Rs 1 lakh crore in next five years as it expands reach to all sections of consumers with different offerings, its leader Baba Ramdev said on Friday.

Another Patanjali Foods FPO in April, will dilute 6%, says Ramdev

With stock exchanges freezing shares of its promoters, Patanjali Foods on Thursday said the move will not impact the company's operation and it will start the process of launching a Follow-On Public Offering (FPO) in April to increase the public shareholding to 25 per cent. Stock exchanges NSE and BSE have frozen the shares of promoters of Baba Ramdev-led Patanjali Group firm Patanjali Foods, which is a major edible oil player. In an interview with PTI, Ramdev assured his investors and public shareholders that there would be no impact of Patanjali Foods Ltd's (PFL) operation and financial performance and its growth trajectory will remain intact. "There is no reason for the investors to worry," he said. According to Ramdev, promoters' shares are already under lock-in as per Sebi guidelines till April 8, 2023, which is one year from the date of listing, and the latest move by stock exchanges do not appear to have a negative impact on the functioning of PFL. He further said that PFL

Corporates use 99% of their time on self-interest: Yoga guru Ramdev

Corporates use 99 per cent of their time on self-interest, while the time of a seer is for the good of all, Yoga guru Ramdev said here on Sunday. He also said the three days he was here was more valuable than the time of billionaire industrialists like Ambani and Adani. Ramdev was addressing a function organised to felicitate his aide Acharya Balkrishna in the presence of Chief Minister Pramod Sawant and Union Minister Shripad Naik. "I have come here for three days from Haridwar. The value of my time is more than that of Adani, Ambani, Tata, Birla. Corporates spend 99 per cent of their time in self interest, whereas a seer's time is for common good," he claimed. He hailed Balkrishna for reviving Patanjali from a sick company to a firm with a turnover of Rs 40,000 crore this financial year due to his professional governance, transparent management and accountability. The dream of making India 'param vaibhavshali' can be achieved by creating empires like Patanjali.

Patanjali working on finding solutions for Lumpy Skin Disease, says Ramdev

Baba Ramdev on Friday said the Patanjali Group is working on finding solutions for Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) that has caused death of around 1 lakh cows. Ramdev suggested that the government should create awareness about the disease, which he alleged that might have "come from Pakistan". He said the government should also investigate how the disease entered the country and spread across many states. "We are working on Lumpy Skin Disease virus," Ramdev told reporters here. He said around one lakh cows have died because of this disease. Ramdev said the disease also affected many cows in his shelter house at Haridwar but not even a single cow died. "We treated cows with ayurvedic medicines like Giloy. Cows having better immunity were not infected with this disease," he said. The LSD has spread in more than a dozen states, including Gujarat, Rajasthan, Punjab and Haryana. The disease has affected 16.42 lakh cattle in 197 districts and has killed 75,000 cattle between July and Septem

Supreme Court raps Yoga Guru Ramdev for criticising allopathy, doctors

The Supreme Court Tuesday came down heavily on Yoga Guru Ramdev for criticising allopathy and allopathic practitioners, saying he needed to be restrained from abusing the doctors and other systems of treatment. The top court also sought responses from the Union Health Ministry and Ministry of Ayush and Patanjali Ayurved Ltd on a plea of the Indian Medical Association (IMA) alleging a smear campaign against the vaccination drive and modern medicines. What happened to this Guru Swami Ramdev Baba?... Ultimately we respect him as he popularised Yoga. We all go for this. But, he should not criticise the other system. What is the guarantee that Ayurveda whatever system he is following will work? You see the type of advertisements accusing all the doctors as if they are killers or something. Huge advertisements (have been given), a bench headed by Chief Justice N V Ramana said. The bench, also comprising justices Hima Kohli and C T Ravikumar, said that the Yog Guru cannot abuse the doctors
