Commenting on the results;

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.
