Banned quite unceremoniously by the Bombay Highcourt, Nestle India is determined to get back Maggi by the end of this year.
Saying that it will not change the ingredients of the instant noodles, Nestle is firm on their decision to retain the earlier contents and the secret formula, and even though I banned in June due to the alleged excessive lead content.
The company has suffered a disastrous hit of ?450 crore and has destroyed 30,000 tonnes of the packets of the instant noodles.
“According to the court directives, the company would go in for testing of Maggi samples this quarter at three independent laboratories in Punjab, Hyderabad, and Jaipur which are accredited with National Accreditation Board for Testing Calibration Laboratories (NABL)” as quoted in TOI
When asked Suresh Narayan, Nestle India Managing Director about the arrival of Maggi in the market, he said, “we will try and target something that is better than that. My desire is to do it before that but let’s see. By the time we get everything done (all clearances), it will be middle of September. I can tell you this quarter no, unlikely. Subsequent quarter, we will try (to bring back Maggi).”
