	Rediff On The Net Business Special: The Hindustan Lever-Colgate toothpaste war
		The lawyers say the sample taken by Hindustan Lever to determine the level of efficiency of the toothpaste was an extremely small one and only a few germs could be detected, thus invalidating the test.
		Hindustan Lever, however, claims that its tests were carried out by the University of Leeds and University of Bristol, United Kingdom, and the University of Pittsburgh, United States, which proved the efficacy of the toothpaste and thereby confirming its claim that the New Pepsodent was indeed superior to other leading brands in the market.
		What has spurred Lever's thrust is the fact that its market share in the dental care market has grown from a mere five per cent in 1979 to an impressive 36 per cent today, whereas Colgate-Palmolive has been seen its market share decline from a dominating 75 per cent to a struggling 56 per cent.
