If I remember correct they are overall losing money in out of India business. Split and bonus means nothing other than being two technical terms, overall wealth would remain same even if no split or bonus. Nevertheless fine bet.

I fully agree with you

Originally posted by pkumar For ayurvedic medicines, I think baidyanath and zandu products are far better in quality as compared to DaburAlso Tropicana from pepsico tastes better than Real juiceStill Dabur is a great company to own due to its strong market in India

I have never Tried Tropicana but other than real juice all the Juices I have tried don't seem Natural. You Can try Real Litchi it tastes wonderful. Will try Tropicana for comparison.

Originally posted by TonyMathew Any idea where the funding for these acquistions are coming from?  They should not leverage their balance sheet and make it debt ridden like some companies who went on an overseas buying spree only to over leverage themselves and get into heavy debt. I think some examples are Suzlon, Wockhart,

On debt front, company is very conservative and careful and not at all over leveraged. Debt equity ratio is favourable.
Company acquired Balsara during 2006 and Fem during 2008 and as per balance sheet, debt reduced to 179 crs in FY10 from 227 crs in FY09. Company is generating lot of cash to take care of aquisitions.
As on date debt should be in the range of 300-350 crs after international aquisitions and such a debt can easily be taken care of by a company of Dabur's size.
