Mumbai: Moms are the epitome of strength, and this Mother’s Day, Himalaya Wellness Company, India’s leading wellness brand, unveils a touching film. Titled #StrengthOfLove, this film is a heartfelt tribute to the incredible resilience of moms and intends to celebrate the natural strength and love that mothers embody, showcased through everyday tasks and challenges they handle while managing their little ones.
Through this beautiful digital film, Himalaya highlights a mother’s subtle and understated yet profound and enduring strength, symbolized by her ability to nurture her little one with love, dedication, and resilience.
The film captures the true sentiment behind Mother’s Day and takes viewers on a journey that explores the concept of multitasking through a series of fun challenges. Participants from various backgrounds are tasked with holding seemingly simple objects while engaging in their hobbies. However, the real test takes place when they’re asked to multitask – replicating the daily realities of motherhood.
While others struggle to hold their objects while performing their usual activities, one participant, a mother, remains undeterred. We see her effortlessly organize a room while holding a flowerpot, showcasing the unmatched strength mothers possess.

Jubilant FoodWorks faces Rs 47.5 crore GST demand, plans appeal
Tax authorities flag alleged misclassification of restaurant services
MUMBAI: Jubilant FoodWorks Limited has landed in a tax tussle after receiving a GST demand of Rs 47.5 crore from the office of the additional commissioner of CGST and central excise in Thane, Maharashtra.
The order, issued under the provisions of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017, relates to an alleged incorrect classification of certain services under the category of restaurant services. According to the tax authorities, this classification resulted in a short payment of goods and services tax for the period between the financial years 2019-20 and 2021-22.
The demand includes Rs 47.5 crore in GST along with an equal amount as penalty, in addition to applicable interest. The order was received by the company on March 13, 2026.
In a regulatory filing to the BSE Limited and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited, the company said it disagrees with the order and believes its arguments were not adequately considered.
The company is preparing to challenge the decision and plans to file an appeal. It added that once the redressal process is complete, the demand is likely to be dropped.
Despite the sizeable figure attached to the notice, the company said it does not expect any material impact on its financials, operations or other activities.
The disclosure was signed by Suman Hegde, EVP and chief financial officer, who confirmed that the company received the order at 19:06 IST on March 13 and has already initiated steps to contest it.
The development places the quick service restaurant major in the middle of a tax debate that could hinge on how certain restaurant-linked services are classified under GST rules. For now, the company appears ready to take the matter from the tax office to the appeals desk.
