c. Reduction of administrative
responsibilities, multiplicity of records
and statutory, legal and regulatory
compliances.
d. The Amalgamating Company has the
capability and manufacturing facility to
manufacture the fermentation based
Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs)
which capability and facility the
Amalgamated Company does not have.
Thus, the Scheme will enable the
Amalgamated Company to Research,
develop and commercialize new
fermentation based APIs and increase its
business.
e. The Amalgamating Company produces
one of the fermentation based API which
is used as a therapeutic ingredient in the
largest selling formulation of the
Amalgamated Company. There are only a
handful manufacturers of this API in the
world. The Scheme will secure the
uninterrupted supply of this API to the
Amalgamated Company.
f. The Amalgamating Company produces
few drug intermediates that are used by
the Amalgamated Company in
manufacturing of their key Active
Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs). The
Scheme will secure the uninterrupted
supply of these drug intermediates to the
Amalgamated Company.
g. The Amalgamating Company is
continuously incurring losses and is
unable to spend on research and
development for development of new
fermentation based APIs so as to
optimally utilize its manufacturing
capabilities and increase its business. The
Scheme, with financial strength, technical
and marketing capabilities of the
Amalgamated Company will facilitate
this.
