It is also demerging the marketing activity from the production activity in India. This will be done after the proposed reverse merger of Henkel Spic India Ltd with Henkel India Ltd. Henkel KGaA controls Henkel India, formerly known as Calcutta Chemicals Company, through Henkel Spic Ltd. Henkel Spic has 92 per cent stake in Henkel India. Henkel Spic has convened an extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders on March 10 on this issue. Incidentally, the swap ratio for the reverse merger has been pegged at 1:1. The managing director of Henkel Spic India, A Satish Kumar informed that Henkel is likely to introduce more products in India from the global stable. Incidentally, the global Henkel brands already popular in India are Fa, Henko, Check and Mr White. Besides, it has former Calcutta Chemical brands such as Neem, Margo and Tuhina.
