Patanjali launched instant noodles on 15 November 2015.[38][39][40] Food Safety and Standards Authority of India slapped a notice on the company as neither Patanjali nor Aayush, which are the two brand names under which Patanjali got licenses, have got any approval for manufacturing instant noodles.[41][42][43][44]

In 2016, Patanjali has announced to enter the textile manufacturing centre. The company is reported to manufacture not only traditional clothes such as Kurta Payjama but also popular western clothes such as jeans.[45]

On 5 November 2016, Patanjali announced that it will set up a new manufacturing plant Patanjali Herbal and Mega Food Park in Balipara, Assam by investing ₹1,200 crore(US$190 million) with the manufacturing capacity of 1,000,000 tonnes (2.2×109 lb) of goods per year.

Patanjali Ayurved has also started its FMCG expansion in form of dealership and distributorship channels across the country and expects wider growth in Overseas distribution as well.[57]

Controversies[edit]

On 21 June 2017, The Nepal Department of Drug Administration asked Patanjali Ayurved in a public notice to immediately recall six medical products as they were found to be of “substandard quality”. All medicines mentioned in the notice — six out of seven from Patanjali — had failed the microbial tests used to detect bacteria, mold and other toxins. [58]

In 2015 a Muslim organisation – Tamil Nadu Thowheed Jamat (TNTJ) – had issued a ‘fatwa’ against Ramdev’s Patanjali products made by using cow urine, saying their use was considered ‘haram’ (forbidden) in Islam.TNTJ said cow’s urine was being used as a ‘key ingredient’ in cosmetics, medicines and food products of Patanjali that are available in open markets as well as online. [59] In response Acharya Balkrishna said “We make more than 800 products, out of which only 5 contain cow urine and it’s mentioned,” [59]

In 2015, the Maharashtra government announced plans to sell excessive material from its Van Dhan Jan Dhan scheme to Patanjali. The government set up this scheme to sell medicinal and herbal products, derived from the forests of Maharashtra, to the consumer in government-established shops.[60] Forest Minister Sudhir Mungantiwar stated that its plan to sell wholesale to Patanjali is an effort to increase production from the Van Dhan Jan Dhan scheme. Members of the opposition party have stated that the forest products are a national asset, and plans to sell them to Patanjali is a form of favoritism.[61]

Patanjali’s Amla juice had also been suspended by the armed forces’ Canteen Stores Department (CSD) in April after it failed the quality test at a Public Health Laboratory in Kolkata.[62]

Products like “Patanjali Noodles” and “Patanjali Pasta” were banned when the food department authorities found them selling these products without licenses. Later Patanjali Ayurveda also failed the food quality test which was organized by the District Food Safety Department.[63]
