Divis Laboratories reported Q3 FY26 consolidated total income of INR 2,692 crore, up 12% YoY, driven by strong custom synthesis (57% mix) and stable generics volume. PAT stood at INR 583 crore, flat YoY due to a one-time exceptional item of INR 74 crore from labour code changes. Gross margins improved sharply to 63.7% (material consumption 36.3% of sales vs 39.8% last year) on favourable product mix. Management highlighted three dedicated CS projects progressing towards commercialization by Q3-Q4 CY2027, with validations ongoing. Peptide capabilities advanced with a dedicated commercial building for SPPS. Nutraceuticals contributed INR 214 crore in the quarter. Risks include continued generic pricing pressure and potential input cost impact from China's export tax rebate withdrawal. Overall, the company is well-positioned for double-digit growth with a strong pipeline and capacity expansion.
