🏭 About the Company
Colgate-Palmolive (India) Ltd has been guarding Indian gums longer than the Constitution. Makers of:
- Colgate Strong Teeth (because weak teeth are unpatriotic)
- Colgate Vedshakti (for Baba Ramdev competition)
- Palmolive Soaps & Shampoos (boomer nostalgia edition)
Market leader in oral care. But also market leader in pricing arrogance.
🧑💼 Key Management
- MD & CEO: Prabha Narasimhan (ex-HUL, now brushing up Colgate margins)
- CFO: Sameer Satpathy – probably flosses budgets line-by-line
- Owned by Colgate Global – so it’s more American than your toothpaste-loving uncle with a US visa.
