Indian consumers normally use the liquid hand wash after eating or before eating, preparing food, after using the toilet, after touching dusty things, etc in their daily lives. Reckitt Benckiser, Hindustan Unilever, Godrej, and Dabur India collectively capture more than 70% of the hand hygiene market.
