The company, on May 29, 2012, concluded the effective acquisition of the personal care business of Paras Pharmaceuticals (PPL) for a consideration of Rs 74,560 lakh. The acquisition was effected through Marico Consumer Care (MCCL), a wholly owned subsidiary of the company. MCCL was incorporated on April 20, 2012 and acquired 100% equity stake in Halite Personal Care (Halite) from Halite's erstwhile owners. The personal care business had been demerged from PPL into Halite effective March 1, 2012 under a scheme of amalgamation and arrangements approved by the High Court of Punjab and Haryana.

The acquisition of Halite by MCCL resulted into Goodwill on consolidation of Rs 11,060 lakh, which is the excess of the consideration, paid over the net worth of Halite on the date of acquisition. The said net worth includes goodwill of Rs. 61,610 lakh which under the aforesaid Court Scheme shall be tested for impairment. The consolidated financial results of Marico for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2012 include the financial results of MCCL and Halite from the relevant dates and hence are strictly not comparable with previous period / year figures.
