However, the Supreme Court objected to it. The hearing is underway before a bench of Justices Hima Kohli and Ahsanuddin Amanullah for airing misleading advertisements. On 22nd April, Patanjali published an apology letter in several newspapers. The apology was published in connection with publishing misleading advertisements and holding press conferences even when the case was sub judice.

About this apology, Patanjali’s advocate Mukul Rohatgi told the court that the advertisement cost Rs 10 lakh and was published in 67 newspapers. On this, the court asked, is this apology as big as the size of your advertisement ? The next hearing will now be held on 30th April and it has been directed to submit the clippings of the apology published at that time.

A case filed against Patanjali by the Indian Medical Association (IMA) in the Supreme Court, alleging misleading advertisements is ongoing.
