Dabur India gets tax relief, demand cut by over half

Dabur India Limited, in a regulatory filing dated November 19, 2025, provided an update on a tax demand originally raised by the Assistant Commissioner of Income Tax, Circle 7(1), Delhi. The initial demand under section 143(3) read with section 263 of the Income Tax Act, 1961, amounted to Rs. 110.33 crores.

The company reported receiving a favorable order from the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT), which quashed an earlier demand of Rs. 59.37 crores that was raised under section 263 of the Income Tax Act, 1961. Consequently, the total tax demand has been reduced from Rs. 110.33 crores to Rs. 50.96 crores. Dabur India Limited is currently appealing this remaining demand before the CIT (Appeals).

The ITAT order was received on November 18, 2025. The company also stated that the financial implication in this matter is unlikely, with any potential financial impact limited to the final tax liability as determined by higher appellate authorities.
