Revenue from operations grew 11.2% to ₹4,049.1 crore. A 43.3% decline in anti-retroviral product portfolio sales to ₹148.6 crore impacted performance.

Total formulations, including ARV, grew 12.8% to ₹3,248.6 crore during the quarter.
The company reported a 4.8% increase in the API sales to ₹799.6 crore.

Managing director N. Govindarajan said the company has reported a healthy growth in revenues and profitability in FY18, led by improvement in most of the markets. “We continue to ramp up investment in differentiated and speciality product portfolio. Our execution strength and pipeline evolution will drive growth for the future,” he said.
