Radico Khaitan’s share dips as its ‘Trikal’ brand sparks major controversy
Mumbai, May 26 (SocialNews.XYZ) Homegrown liquor company Radico Khaitan Ltd saw its share closing in the red on Monday, after it drew a mega controversy for hurting religious sentiments via offering a new whisky brand titled ‘Trikal,’ that refers to the Hindu deity Shiva. Shares of Radico Khaitan, known for brands such as 8PM, Magic Moments, Royal Ranthambore, Rampur Single Malt, After Dark, Morpheus, Contessa and Jaisalmer, fell Rs 12.60 (0.51 per cent) to close at Rs 2,440.00 — after witnessing an intra-day rise which subsided as the controversy erupted over its ‘Trikal’ Indian single malt.
