Mother Sparsh launches #PlantAndPure campaign on social media, unveils new range of plant-powered baby care products
MUMBAI: Mother Sparsh- India’s leading natural and plant based baby care products and supplies, has launched campaign #PlantAndPure. The campaign carries an important message for parents to embrace plant origin natural products to take care of their infants and children. It also invites mothers and parents to participate in the online campaign. Along with its social media campaign, Mother Sparsh unveils a new range of Plant-powered baby care products. The diverse range includes Plant-Powered Laundry Detergent, Plant powered Liquid cleanser, Natural Baby Wash, Natural Baby lotion, Natural face cream, and plant powered diaper rash cream.
#PlantAndPure targets to reach more than 5 million parents while featuring a variety of natural baby products, specifically produced by leveraging the power of nature. To further strengthen its reach for the campaign, Mother Sparsh has partnered with India’s largest and highly engaged closed community of Young Moms ‘FirstCry Parenting’. The association will enable #PlantAndPure to emphasize its message among the right set of audience and drive higher engagement. More players have also joined the campaign to take a valuable message for their customers.
To further, develop synergies within the industry, Mother Sparsh is also partnering with India's homegrown e-commerce marketplace, Flipkart to amplify the reach of these natural & eco-friendly baby care products. This strategic alliance will help Mother Sparsh tap Flipkart’s consumer base of over 200 million and reach an ever-growing, pan-India audience in a much more effective manner.
Ms Rishu Gandhi, Founder, and Head Brand Strategist, Mother Sparsh expresses about this campaign, "Since the beginning, we are emphasizing on the need for using natural products and being more conscious towards our environment. We understand that it takes time to alter a traditional viewpoint and hence within short durations, we launch different campaigns with a core message to use eco-friendly & natural baby care products. #PlantAndPure is among those campaigns, and we hope to reach five million online users with the campaign. All our products are natural and 100% safe for children."
FirstCry’ s personnel said – “We have realised that there is substantial demand for Pure & Organic products in India, and partnering with Mother Sparsh for #PlantAndPure campaign will strengthen the belief among Mom’s community towards plant-based products”
#PlantAndPure campaign can be regarded as another stepping stone from the brand after the company’s inception, as it is aimed at raising awareness about using naturally prepared baby products. Mother Sparsh has been committed to the goal of making high-quality organic baby care products, which are sparsely available in the market today. The brand is relentlessly working to help mothers understand the significance of natural and eco-friendly products that are in tune with our environment. The campaign #PlantAndPure by Mother Sparsh is an extension of an ideology, which is focused more on bringing about a habitual change in caring for the little ones.
The brand will also encourage more than 500 mothers over Instagram in the said campaign to ensure a considerable amount of participation for the cause. Through the means of Facebook, Mother Sparsh has also planned high-capacity promotions further, to engage as many parents as possible during the campaign period.

Maharashtra panel orders Lodha to refund Rs 5 crore to homebuyers
Consumer court flags unfair practices in long-running property dispute case
MUMBAI: In a sharp rebuke to one of India’s biggest real estate players, the Maharashtra State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission has directed Macrotech Developers to refund nearly Rs 5 crore to a senior citizen couple, Uttam and Anindita Chatterjee. The ruling, delivered on March 13, 2026, calls out the developer for “deficiency in service” and “unfair trade practices”, bringing closure to a dispute that has stretched over a decade.
The case traces back to 2015, when the couple booked a 3-BHK flat at World Towers in Lower Parel for Rs 12.22 crore, with possession promised within a year. What followed was a series of changes that complicated matters. After deciding to exit the project, they were persuaded to shift to a 4-BHK in another development priced at Rs 8 crore, with delivery scheduled for 2018. However, within months, the price was allegedly increased to Rs 10 crore. After demonetisation reshaped the market, similar flats were reportedly being offered at lower prices, but the couple were not given the benefit.
Despite paying over Rs 2.83 crore, the couple neither received possession nor clarity. Instead, in 2018, the developer unilaterally cancelled the booking, retained part of the amount as earnest money, and argued that the buyers were investors rather than consumers. The commission rejected this claim, observing that casual references to “investment” do not take away consumer rights when the purchase intent is residential.
The bench also held that the developer could not penalise buyers for payment delays while failing to meet its own delivery commitments. It noted the lack of formal documentation for revised terms and termed the prolonged retention of funds without delivering a home as exploitative.
As part of its order, the commission directed the developer to refund Rs 2.83 crore paid by the couple, along with interest at 10 per cent per annum, amounting to around Rs 2.12 crore. In addition, Rs 1 lakh has been awarded for mental agony and Rs 50,000 towards litigation costs, taking the total payout to over Rs 5 crore. The developer has been asked to comply within two months.
For now, the ruling serves as a reminder that in real estate, shifting terms and delayed promises can carry a significant cost.
