Dabur Says Nepal Factories Unaffected Despite Devastating Floods
Severe floods have affected parts of Nepal.
Dabur, an Indian company, said its factories there are still working normally.
The factories are in Kathmandu and Birganj.
Some distributors may have trouble delivering products.
Dabur said only three distributors are expected to be affected.

Dabur also said its quarterly profit increased to Rs 591 crore.
