Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and thank you for joining us on our second quarter and half year earnings call for the financial year 2027. Indian healthcare system continues to focus on improving patient outcomes with diagnostics playing a significant role in anchoring evidence-based therapies. Advancement in diagnostic technology is going hand-in-hand with the increasing complexity of the demands from the clinical community for more precise and personalized therapies. Our recent acquisition of S N GeneLab in Surat adds differentiated tests to our portfolio in oncogenomics and reproductive genomics, which combined with our Page 2 of 18 national reach will benefit the wider clinical community. S N GeneLab has a proven track record and an active R&D program in the genomics area with international tie- ups and in-house research work. This will complement the R&D effort, which LPL has embarked upon with academic institutions and other research institutions. These efforts are aimed at leading the scientific development in diagnostics and introducing new tests and technologies in India. There is also an increasing emphasis on disease prevention and diagnostics has an important part to play in that shift. Under the National Program for Prevention and Control of Non-Communicable Diseases, that is (NP-NCDs) through 1.8 lakh Ayushman Arogya Mandirs, over 41.5 crore people have been screened for hypertension, 41.3 crore for diabetes and 35.3 crore for oral cancer and 16.5 crore women for breast cancer and close to 8.7 crore women for cervical cancer. This is a public health effort of extraordinary ambition, but screening only is the beginning of a clinical journey. Every positive finding requires confirmation and then monitoring and that work is done in laboratories. The need for accurate, accredited, high-quality confirmatory diagnostics tests is only going to increase. Our expansion into the international markets has seen significant movement this quarter with the acquisition of Sunshine diagnostics in Ghana and a JV in Uzbekistan. These are small steps towards building a meaningful long-term business in markets where we can contribute towards improving the diagnostic ecosystem. Our team is also working to make quality diagnostics available to the communities in the underserved regions of our country. Our rural outreach program is gaining strength in the seven states that we have launched with higher patient numbers this quarter. The migration from unorganized to organized testing remains the defining opportunity of this decade, and it will be won on quality, reach and trust. With that, I hand over to Mr. Shankha Banerjee. Thank you very much. Shankha Banerjee: Thank you, Dr. Lal, and good evening, everybody. I am happy to share that we have sustained our growth momentum in Q2 FY27 with a revenue achievement of Rs. 874 crore at a 19.6% growth. This is the highest quarterly growth in the last 5 years and has been driven by a 9% growth in patient volumes. Our consistent focus on the key strategic pillars of scientific leadership, enhanced patient experience, and operational excellence are yielding results. Page 3 of 18 Our commitment to medical leadership and clinical tests remains the primary engine driving our test mix and realization quality. • In Q2 FY27, we continue to expand our advanced testing portfolio and strengthened our diagnostic depth across specialized frontiers such as oncogenomics, transplant immunology and rare genetic disorders. Demonstrating this commitment, we launched around 140 new tests during H1 FY27 and 2 first in India assays in Q2 FY27. • Our recent acquisition of S N GeneLab strengthens our play in genomics testing. The combined portfolio with testing hubs in North and West strengthens our genomics expertise, broadens our advanced diagnostic portfolio, and enables deployment across our entire network. • We have rolled out a new physical patient report format, which enhances the reporting experience as it incorporates the trend chart of most common tests. It also has a useful anti-counterfeit watermark embedded to ensure genuineness of the report. These reports are now reaching more than 80% of our patients daily. • We have recently established an enterprise-wide foundation for digital pathology through a secure, scalable hybrid cloud platform that unifies image management, supports multiple file formats and integrates seamlessly with our LIMS solution. The platform is future-ready to enable multiple business streams, including AI-led services. The team is eager to build on the strong foundation of the first half and deliver our targeted sustainable revenue growth over the medium term. We continue to retain a significant pricing headroom as a strategic lever going forward. I will now hand over the call to Ved, who will take you through the detailed financial metrics of the quarter under review. Over to you, Ved. Ved Prakash Goel: Thank you, Shankha. Good evening, everyone, and a warm welcome. Thank you for joining us today. I will take you through the financial highlights for the quarter under review. We continue to build on our strong oper [Showing first 8,000 characters — download PDF for full document]
