Himalaya Wellness Reimagines Hydration Skincare with the Relaunch of Its Aloe Range Through a Youthful TVC




~The new “Say Aloe to Hydrated, Bouncy, Dewy Cheeks” campaign spotlights hydration through nature enriched with science.

National, 14 July 2026: Himalaya Wellness strengthens its presence in the growing hydration skincare category with the relaunch of its Aloe Vera Range. As hydration increasingly becomes central to modern skincare routines, the brand is repositioning its Aloe Vera range as a contemporary skincare essential, rooted in nature and backed by science to deliver “Hydrated, bouncy and dewy” skin.

At the centre of the relaunch is a new TVC built around a playful and culturally relevant consumer behaviour the everyday cheek-to-cheek greeting among friends. Set in a fresher's party, the film uses relatability and beauty aspiration to bring alive the brand's "Say Aloe to Hydrated, Bouncy, Dewy Cheeks" message. Through a youthful storytelling approach, the campaign aims to make hydration-led skincare more conversational, social-first and relevant for Gen Z consumers.

The relaunch reflects Himalaya Wellness's continued focus on strengthening its presence within the evolving hydration skincare category. It does this through ingredient-led innovation, youth-first storytelling and new age formats with the launch of a range extension - Aloe Vera Hydra Plump Face Serum with 2% Hyaluronic Acid. At a time when skincare preferences are evolving from functional moisturisation to visible hydration benefits, consumers are increasingly seeking skin that looks and feels soft, hydrated and dewy rather than simply moisturised. Responding to this shift, Himalaya Wellness is spotlighting the benefits of Aloe Vera, Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin E through a range designed to support hydrated, bouncy, and dewy-looking skin. The campaign further reinforces the brand's broader skincare strategy of combining relatable consumer insights with science-backed innovation to deepen its connection with Gen Z.

Speaking about the campaign, Ms. Ragini Hariharan, Marketing Director – Beauty & Personal Care, Himalaya Wellness, said, “With the relaunch of our Aloe Vera Range, we are highlighting Aloe Vera’s natural hydration benefits for skin. As consumers increasingly gravitate towards new-age, high-efficacy formats, we are further strengthening the portfolio with the launch of a serum, catering to their growing preference for targeted, performance-driven skincare. Through the “Say Aloe to hydrated, bouncy, dewy cheeks” campaign, we bring this proposition to life with a youthful, culturally relevant narrative—making hydration skincare more engaging, relatable, and in tune with the expectations of today’s beauty consumer.”

Speaking on the creative inspiration behind the campaign, Naveen Raman, Executive Vice President, 82.5 communications said, “Today's young woman is always on, socially connected and constantly
expressing herself. While skin dryness is a common concern, she seeks healthy, hydrated skin . Himalaya's Hydrating Face range replenishes and locks in moisture, delivering that coveted bouncy dewy skin. To bring this to life, we have rooted the campaign in an authentic Gen Z moment.

GUJARAT INJECT (KERALA) LIMITED ANNOUNCES REVISED RECORD DATE FOR 10:1 STOCK SPLIT AMID EXPLOSIVE MARCH FINANCIAL GROWTH AND MASSIVE SOLAR ORDER WINS


July 7th, 2026 – Gujarat Inject (Kerala) Limited (BSE: 524238) has officially announced a revision to the Record Date for its upcoming sub-division/split of equity shares. As per the official intimation submitted to BSE Limited by the Company Secretary & Compliance Officer, the revised Record Date is now set for Wednesday, July 8, 2026, superseding the previously scheduled date of July 2, 2026. 
This highly anticipated corporate action is strategically timed alongside the company's explosive financial growth and a major operational transition into India's booming renewable energy sector. 
Strategic Focus: The 10:1 Stock Split Mechanics 
A stock split divides existing corporate shares into multiple units without altering the core market capitalization, introducing structural advantages that directly benefit everyday retail investors: 
· The Split Ratio: 10:1 (Ten equity shares will be issued for every one existing share held). 
· Face Value Reduction: The face value per equity share will be adjusted from ₹10 to ₹1. 
· Greater Affordability: By proportionally scaling down the absolute market price per share, the split lowers the financial barrier to entry, allowing smaller retail buyers to purchase whole shares. 
· Enhanced Market Liquidity: An increased volume of outstanding shares moving through the capital market paves the way for higher trading volumes, tighter bid-ask spreads, and the ability to exit or enter positions with minimal price slippage. 
· Entitlement Eligibility: Shareholders whose names appear in the company’s records or depositories as beneficial owners by the close of business hours on the revised date of Wednesday, July 8, 2026, will be entitled to receive the sub-divided shares.
Blockbuster Financial Highlights (As of March 2026) 
This structural share split is heavily backed by robust, underlying fundamentals. According to the company's recently disclosed financial results for the fiscal period ended March 2026, Gujarat Inject (Kerala) Limited has delivered stellar year-on-year (YoY) numbers:
