Sun Pharma reported Q4 FY24 consolidated revenue of INR 11,813 crore, up 10.1% YoY, driven by strong specialty sales (Ilumya up 21.7% to $580M globally) and India formulation growth of 10.2%. EBITDA margin contracted 30bps to 25.3% due to higher R&D and selling expenses. PAT grew 33.8% to INR 2,655 crore, aided by lower tax. Management guided for high single-digit revenue growth in FY25, with R&D spend rising to 8-10% of sales as the company invests in specialty pipeline (deuruxolitinib launch, phase III for MM2). Key risks include FDA compliance issues at Mohali/Dadra, potential pricing pressure from Stelara biosimilars, and elevated investment costs impacting near-term margins.
सन फार्मा ने चौथी तिमाही में 11,813 करोड़ रुपये की कमाई की, जो पिछले साल से 10.1% ज्यादा है। इसकी वजह है खास दवाओं (जैसे इलुम्या की बिक्री 21.7% बढ़कर 580 मिलियन डॉलर हुई) और भारत में दवा बिक्री में 10.2% का उछाल। मुनाफा 33.8% बढ़कर 2,655 करोड़ रुपये हो गया, क्योंकि टैक्स कम लगा। कंपनी ने अगले साल 8-10% तक कमाई बढ़ने का अनुमान लगाया है, लेकिन नई दवाओं पर ज्यादा खर्च करेगी। जोखिमों में फैक्ट्रियों पर एफडीए की पाबंदी, स्टेलारा जैसी दवाओं से मुकाबला और बढ़ते निवेश से मुनाफे पर दबाव शामिल है।
