A year after Maggi made a comeback following a ban of eight months, Nestle India is looking to consolidate its leadership position in the noodles segment, and re-grow the overall category that has shrunk due to trust issues with consumers over food safety.

Nestle said Maggi noodles in India has reported sustained recovery, regaining market share in the country almost a year after it was relaunched following a five-month ban in 2015.

Within nine months of its re-launch, Maggi noodles now accounts for 57.1 per cent market share of the instant noodles segment riding on its marketing /branding initiatives and new variants.

Nestle India's instant noodle brand Maggi, whose sales were severally hit by FSSAI ban last year, has regained its leadership position capturing 57 per cent share of the market in June this year.

Rebounding from losses after ban on its Maggi noodles last year, FMCG major Nestle India on Friday reported net profit of Rs 230.84 crore for the second quarter ended June 30.

In June last year, FSSAI had banned Nestle's Maggi noodles over allegations of high lead content and the presence of MSG above permissible limit.

Having 'weathered' the Maggi storm, Nestle India is embarking on a product offensive, launching up to 25 products across various categories to fend off 'disruptive competition' from new rivals like Patanjali.

After a five-month ban, in November last year, Nestle India relaunched Maggi noodles in the Indian market.

Nestle India Ltd reported fourth-quarter net profit below analysts' estimates as it struggles to regain market share of its once-popular Maggi noodles that were temporarily banned last year over safety concerns.
