Small-cap circuit-to-circuit stock Aayush Wellness skyrockets 70% in three months
On May 10, 2025, the stock was trading at ₹ 99.83 apiece, up from ₹ 58.76 three months ago. In the past one year, Aayush Wellness has delivered a jaw-dropping 446 percent return, climbing from ₹ 18.26 a year ago. Even more remarkable, a ₹ 1 lakh investment made two years ago would today be worth ₹ 52.26 lakh, reflecting over a 50-fold gain. Moreover, the stock has hit its 2 percent upper circuit for 11 straight session and has been in the green continuously since March 27, 2025.
After shedding 15 percent in March 2025, the stock rebounded sharply—gaining 9.5 percent in February, 58 percent in April, and another 15 percent in just the first ten days of May. The rally was supported by strong investor interest, back-to-back upper circuits, and an ambitious business roadmap.
On April 26, 2025, Aayush Wellness announced a foray into the healthcare services space, unveiling smart health kiosks and medical support centers. The company inaugurated its first healthcare center in Virar, Maharashtra, as part of a broader initiative inspired by the government's E-Sanjeevani telemedicine service.
The newly launched health ATMs are designed to perform rapid diagnostic tests in just 2–3 minutes, maintain digital health records, and provide real-time telemedicine consultations. This initiative aims to bring affordable, accessible, and proactive health solutions closer to underserved populations.
Aayush Wellness is investing up to ₹ 25 crore in the first phase of this expansion and will evaluate future investments based on evolving business needs. The goal is to build a nationwide offline network to complement its existing product offerings and bring preventive healthcare under one roof.
To improve stock liquidity and attract retail participation, Aayush Wellness executed a 1:10 stock split in August 2024, reducing the face value of each share from ₹ 10 to ₹ 1. Later, in December 2024, the company issued a 1:2 bonus share, further increasing shareholder value.
These corporate actions have played a key role in expanding retail investor participation and supporting the stock's sustained rally on Dalal Street.
Formerly known as Aayush Food and Herbs Limited, the company rebranded itself as Aayush Wellness Limited in July 2024, aligning its identity with a broader focus on preventive and herbal healthcare. Based in New Delhi and established in 1984, the company offers a range of wellness solutions including nutraceuticals, herbal supplements, beauty gummies, and functional products like tobacco-free pan masala and sleep-enhancing gummies.
Its innovative product line reflects a growing consumer shift toward natural, preventive, and non-invasive healthcare options, a trend that continues to gain momentum in both urban and rural India.
Overall, Aayush Wellness has emerged as a top small-cap performer, delivering extraordinary returns to investors backed by visionary expansion, strategic rebranding, and wellness-driven innovation. While the rally has been exceptional, investors should keep an eye on execution risk and market volatility. Nevertheless, the company's entry into preventive healthcare infrastructure and continued product innovation signal a business poised for long-term relevance in India's booming wellness sector.

Save Our Samosa
Could outlawing all that is delicious be the only way to ensure that we eat healthy? This thought that popped into my head for a second and took another couple of seconds to articulate out loud left me wondering: Where did my relationship with food go so wrong? That we should all eat our food as pills or suck it through a straw, as the humans in the 2008 Pixar film WALL-E do, has always struck me as one of the most needlessly cruel and utterly stupid science fiction tropes. Food reduced to mere nourishment: That's not efficiency, that's joylessness. So what made me argue to myself that ridding the world of tasty food might be any kind of solution? The answer is all around us, in our diet-obsessed, fat-shaming, hunger-guilting culture. It's in the fact that we are now sold food based not on what it has, but what it doesn't have. We are in the age, as the meme goes, of the 'super easy, two ingredient, low calorie, no bake, no refrigerate, no flour, no sugar, no gluten, no egg, no carb, no fat, no woman, no cry, no beans, no greens, no tomatoes, no lambs, no rams, no hogs, no dogs, no chicken, no turkey, no rabbits, you name it, high protein peanut butter banana oat bars.' A relationship with food that is so broken that it is easier to mock than fix. Amidst this comes the Health Ministry instruction to schools, offices and public institutions to put up display boards in canteens that warn people about the fat and sugar content of the food available. So, samosas, with their crisp, flaky crusts and steaming, spicy fillings, will be judged by how much trans fats they contain, and tea, that mid-afternoon rejuvenator of spirits, by how much sugar it has. Where is the overworked official, the underpaid clerk, the overburdened student to find solace? True happiness may not be found inside a samosa, but pleasure certainly is. It is foolish to measure the nourishment that food provides just in terms of its protein, fat or fibre content: One of the few purely sensual pleasures available to most, food is also a source of comfort and quiet joy. It offers affirmation and security, and defines the tenor of our days. How can this vast, capacious vessel — which carries us through good times and bad, through memories and daydreams, forging connections and deepening our understanding of our differences and similarities — be reduced to mere calories? This is the cross that we in the 21st century have to bear. Food has never been more plentiful in the history of humanity, and yet never has it been so burdened with our complicated feelings about ourselves and our bodies. We tell ourselves that we don't 'deserve' another spoonful of ice cream because we didn't get our 10,000 steps that day. We 'cheat' on our diets with pizza and cake, and we feel smug about eating no more than a tablespoon of rice with baked fish and steamed broccoli. Hunger is no longer a biological imperative, it is a calculation — of macros and micronutrients, of 'empty' calories, 'good' fats and 'bad'. Just like food, there is plenty of blame to go around too — towards the content overload of the age, the half- or misinformed advice peddled by wellness influencers, and the global food processing and health and fitness industries that have turned food and all our complexes about it into a source of profit. When what should be instinct — how much to eat and when to stop — is repackaged and sold to us as advice about 'mindful eating', it is time to stop and consider our own part in what is, after all, a crisis of overconsumption. But as we strive to be better and eat better, let pleasure not become collateral damage. It is time to send an SOS: Spare Our Samosas. Let Our Jalebis….Just Be.
