How much is produced?[edit]

As of March 2006, the Mysore Sandal soap held a 6500 tonne share among the 450 thousand tonnes of soap produced and marketed annually in India.[4] The KSDL's soap factory in Bangalore that manufactures the Mysore Sandal Soap is one of the largest of its kind in India having an installed capacity to produce 26,000 tonnes of soap per annum.[2]

Is there an inconsistancy here? (Msrasnw (talk) 15:24, 17 July 2009 (UTC))[reply]

UK connections[edit]

On the UK website is has the following: "Well over a century ago, a Company was formed in India by the Maharaja of Mysore, Queen Victoria, and Sir Alfred Chatterton. From this Company a legend was born-'Mysore Sandal Soap'. Created then, as now, from the finest, purest, Mysore sandalwood oil, Queen Victoria's favoured skin care product. To this day Mysore Sandal Soap still enjoys the distinction of being in use in the Royal Palaces of the UK. (Msrasnw (talk) 15:30, 17 July 2009 (UTC))[reply]
