Market Position/ History

Dabur India Ltd. has a legacy that spans over 138 years, beginning in 1884 when Dr. S.K. Burman set out to provide affordable and effective healthcare solutions through Ayurvedic medicine in Calcutta. What started as a small initiative soon grew into a structured business, with the establishment of manufacturing units, research laboratories, and product expansion across Eastern India. By the early 20th century, Dabur was a pioneer in standardized Ayurvedic medicines, with innovations like research labs in 1919 and new units in Narendrapur and Daburgram. The company formally became Dabur India (Dr. S.K. Burman) Pvt. Ltd. in 1936. In the decades that followed, it expanded operations, relocated to Delhi, and built a major production facility in Sahibabad, alongside a dedicated R&D center in 1979. Dabur became a public limited company in 1986 and continued to grow through product diversification and strategic partnerships, including joint ventures in confectionery and dairy products in the 1990s.

Entering the 21st century, Dabur marked several major milestones, including the demerger of its pharma business in 2003 and key acquisitions like Balsara (2005), Fem Care Pharma (2008), and Hobi Kozmetik and Namaste Laboratories (2010), cementing its presence both in India and overseas. The company ventured into organized retail in 2007 and continued expanding its FMCG product portfolio, creating billion-rupee brands like Dabur Red Paste, Real, Vatika, and Amla. By 2012, Dabur crossed the billion-dollar revenue mark, with continued growth in brand value and product innovation. Today, Dabur stands as a global Ayurvedic and natural health care leader with operations in over 120 countries, blending traditional wellness with modern science.
