==History==
In the mid-1880s, Dr. S.K. Burman, an Ayurvedic practitioner in [[Kolkata]], formulated Ayurvedic medicines for diseases like cholera, constipation and malaria. He went on to set up Dabur India Ltd in 1884 to mass-produce his Ayurvedic formulations. His son, C.L. Burman, set up Dabur's first R&D unit. The current chairman, Dr. [[Anand Burman]], and vice-chairman Amit Burman, are part of the fifth generation of the family. They were among the first business families in India to separate ownership from management, when they handed over the management of the company to professionals in 1998.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.forbesindia.com/article/my-learnings/how-daburs-burmans-segregated-family-and-business/34203/1|title=How Dabur's Burmans Segregated Family and Business {{!}} Forbes India|website=Forbes India|language=en-US|access-date=27 July 2017}}</ref>
