Cipla delivered a record quarter with revenue of ₹6,678 crore (+15% YoY) and EBITDA margin of 26%, driven by double-digit growth across India (+10%), North America (+28% to $229M), and South Africa (+12%). The India business benefited from a chronic mix shift (+140bps to 60%), while US growth was led by lanreotide (20% share) and albuterol share recovery. EBITDA guidance was raised to 23-24% (bias to higher end). Key upcoming catalysts include generic Symbicort filing in Q3, a peptide launch in Q4, and multiple complex filings in FY25. Risk: Indore facility OAI classification could delay US approvals.
सिप्ला ने एक रिकॉर्ड तिमाही दर्ज की। कुल कमाई ₹6,678 करोड़ रही, जो पिछले साल से 15% ज़्यादा है। मुनाफा (EBITDA) 26% रहा। भारत में बिक्री 10%, उत्तर अमेरिका में 28% ($229 मिलियन) और दक्षिण अफ्रीका में 12% बढ़ी। भारत में पुरानी बीमारियों की दवाओं की हिस्सेदारी बढ़कर 60% हो गई। अमेरिका में लैनरियोटाइड (20% बाजार हिस्सा) और एल्ब्युटेरोल की बिक्री बढ़ी। कंपनी ने मुनाफा अनुमान 23-24% तक बढ़ा दिया। आने वाले समय में जेनेरिक सिम्बिकॉर्ट (तीसरी तिमाही), एक पेप्टाइड दवा (चौथी तिमाही) और कई जटिल दवाएं लॉन्च होंगी। जोखिम: इंदौर फैक्ट्री पर OAI वर्गीकरण से अमेरिकी मंजूरी में देरी हो सकती है।
