HLL Lifecare Limited, formerly known as Hindustan Latex Limited, was incorporated in 1966 with its headquarters at Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. The company was originally established to produce condoms for India's National Family Planning Programme, and over the decades diversified into a wider range of healthcare products and services. Moods was developed as a commercial retail brand alongside HLL's social marketing and free-supply contraceptive lines.
The Moods line includes a variety of condom variants differentiated by features such as texture, flavour, thinness, and shape. The brand is sold through pharmacies, general retail outlets, and online channels in India.
As a product of a central public sector enterprise, Moods occupies a position at the intersection of commercial retail marketing and India's broader public health objectives in family planning and HIV/AIDS prevention. HLL Lifecare's manufacturing capacity for natural rubber latex contraceptives makes it among the largest condom producers in the world, supplying both branded retail products such as Moods and bulk supplies for government distribution.
