Mr. Vir Sinha, M.D. Natural Beverages Ltd., was looking at the “AD
Punchline” created by his product manager Jatin Shah. He was taken
aback by the claim that their new product “NATU-RAS” energy drink is
“The best fitness plan for your health-real fruit and no sugar”.

Jatin Shah, the Product Manager, was little uneasy when asked by his
M.D. as to how we can claim “Best health plan drink” when they know
that they are preservatives and permissive food colours. Jatin defended by
saying that all shampoo and hair oil advertisements also make similar
hyper claims as a mode of communicating superiority of their respective
brands.

Discuss how in this case the question of ethics in advertising has been
linked to persuasive product communication for “NATU-RAS”
