Management Commentary

We’re pleased to share that your Company crossed the 22,000 crore revenue mark in FY25, growing 8.5% to reach 32,108 crore. This milestone reflects the continued strength of our India Formulations business, which contributed 84% of sales and growing with 14.4% YoY, and strong momentum in our API segment, which grew 21.1% YoY. Export Formulation business however reported decline of 25.6% YoY primarily due to lower sales in US market and few of the ROW markets. Lower sales in US market were majorly due to regulatory issues. The regulatory issues of US market have now been addressed, and management believe the business should be back in its normal flow in the coming financial year.

Profitability during the year was impacted primarily due to drop in the Export formulation business, reduction in price of Electral due to NLEM price revision announcement during QI1FY25, and higher employee costs in view of moderate expansion in field force in certain clusters of India market.

The company delivered revenue growth of 9.1% in 9MFY25, driven by robust performance across all business segments, except for US Formulations.
