Achin Gupta: Thank you, Diksha. Good afternoon to all of you, and we appreciate you joining for our Q1
FY27 earnings call. I'm delighted to share that we have delivered the highest ever Q1 revenue
with revenues of INR7,100 crores in this Q1. Achieving a record first quarter provides a strong
start to the year. It reinforces the resilience of our business fundamentals, the diversified nature
of our business, and it strengthens our confidence in sustaining long-term growth.
Coming to the business-wise performance. Our One India business achieved its highest ever
quarterly revenue with 12% Y-o-Y growth, reflecting a strong performance across key therapies
and underscoring the strength of our franchise in the IPM.
Within this, the branded prescription business continued to witness strong momentum across
chronic portfolio, delivering a market-leading growth of 15.4% during the quarter as per IQVIA
data.
Key therapies registered strong double-digit growth. Respiratory grew at 15%; Anti-diabetes;
43%; Cardiac 20%; and Urology at double-digit as per the IQVIA data for the quarter ended
June 26. This performance was driven by a strong volume expansion, sustained brand strength,
focused field execution and continued momentum from new product launches.

Our overall chronic mix strengthened this quarter to 60.4% Y-o-Y. We added 2 new brands to
the INR100-plus crores club, taking our total to 33. And our presence in the IPM top 300 brands
remains strong with 23 brands, reinforcing the depth and resilience of our portfolio.
Foracort, which is our flagship inhalation brand, continued to strengthen its leadership position
as the number 1 respiratory brand in the IPM while sustaining its status as INR1,000-plus crores
franchise.
Cipla continues to be the largest pharma company in terms of volume and the only player with
2 billion-plus unit sales in IPM as per IQVIA MAT June '26. Our new launch momentum also
remains strong with a number of targeted introductions across key chronic specialty and wellness
segments.
In respiratory, we strengthened our portfolio with Duolin Synchrobreathe, a breath-actuated
inhalation platform designed to enhance ease of use and adherence, and Bilafav M for the
management of allergic rhinitis and associated symptoms.
In the obesity segment, following our entry into the segment through our collaboration with Eli
Lilly for Yurpeak in the previous quarter, the brand has continued to witness encouraging
traction and delivered a strong performance during the quarter.
In immunology, we launched UPADACIP, significantly strengthening our presence in chronic
inflammatory and autoimmune disorders and enhancing our ability to address patient needs in a
rapidly evolving specialty segment. Additionally, Byefilm, which is our nasal hygiene range,
broadened our supportive care and wellness portfolio.
Collectively, these launches reinforce our commitment to addressing evolving patient needs and
deepen our presence in high opportunity chronic therapy areas and further strengthen the breadth
and competitiveness of our portfolio.
On the trade generic side, our business delivered a healthy growth during the quarter on the back
of vigorous execution in distribution and new product launches. Expanding our portfolio remains
a key growth driver with 3 new launches this quarter, addressing specific patient needs.
Our Consumer Health business continued its upward trajectory with Nicotex, Omnigel and
Cipladine consolidating their respective number 1 positions in the segment. The business is
driving healthy secondary growth and actively exploring opportunities to invest in products and
channels to further expand our distribution.
Operating profitability improved during the quarter, reflecting the strength and scalability of the
consumer health. In North America, we delivered quarterly revenue of 162 million. Cipla
continues to hold the number 1 position in the overall U.S. Albuterol MDI market this quarter
with our market share standing at 21% as per IQVIA data for the week ending June 2026.
One key highlight for the quarter was the successful launch of generic Ventolin in the U.S.
following regulatory approval, which was received last quarter. We have commenced
commercial shipments with volumes expected to increase as the supply scales up. During the

quarter, we further strengthened our portfolio with the launch of Nintedanib and Dapagliflozin
in addition to some of the more recent launches like Liraglutide, which is expanding our presence
in high-growth therapy areas and advancing the execution on our pipeline.
Looking ahead, we expect North America business to continue its sequential growth trajectory
during the year supported by the upcoming product launches and continued commercial
execution. More details on the U.S. pipeline. As
