History
It was founded by Keshav Vishnu Pendharkar in 1952, in a small godown in the industrial belt of Parel, in Mumbai.[2][6] Its first product was a tooth cleaning powder which was developed after studying ancient Ayurvedic texts. Initially, Keshav Pendharkar and his sons would go door-to door to sell the product.[2] In 1971, the company expanded into the skincare segment and came out with a turmeric-based skin cream called Vicco turmeric Ayurvedic cream.[2]
