Honasa Consumer, the parent company of Mamaearth, has decided to discontinue its ayurvedic beauty brand Ayuga. The company stated that it was unable to establish a product-market fit and started phasing out the brand in June. Honasa Consumer will now focus on its other brands, including Mamaearth, The Derma Co, Aqualogica, Dr Shethโs, BBlunt, and Staze. The company reported a 19% increase in operating revenue for the April-June period and a net profit rise of 62%. Ayuga, which was launched in December 2021 and revamped based on consumer feedback, failed to gain traction in the market.
