The Supreme Court rejected Baba Ramdev and Acharya Balkrishna's apology for misleading Patanjali ads. Justices Hima Kohli and Ahsanuddin Amanullah criticized Patanjali's deliberate violations, stating apologies are insufficient. Senior Advocate Mukul Rohatgi's plea for leniency was dismissed, with the court emphasizing consequences for wrongdoing. Baba Ramdev was reprimanded for seeking court exemption for travel and submitting a backdated ticket. The bench warned of further action beyond rejecting the apology. Patanjali faces repercussions for the "wilful, deliberate and repeated violations" of court orders.
