The Kerala High Court on 2 August 2012 refused to stay the state government's ban on manufacture, storage and sale of gutka, pan masala and their variants containing tobacco and nicotine.  The state government had banned the manufacture, storage and sale of gutka, pan masala and their variants on 22 May 2012.

However, the court directed the government to grant more time to remove stocks of the banned products from the state. The order was issued on a batch of petitions by the manufacturers of panmasala and gutka products challenging the government order.
