 "IPCA Laboratories drops over 10% on Credit Suisse downgrade")
Shares of IPCA Laboratories slumped 10.4% to Rs 668 on the BSE as Credit Suisse downgraded the stock to "underperform" from "neutral", citing negative USFDA observations.
US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) issued Form-483 for the company's Indore SEZ. FDA's observations are on IPCA's Indore facility, Credit Suisse said.
Previously, IPCA had discontinued manufacturing voluntarily at its Ratlam facility after USFDA noticed serious issues at its Ratlam API facility.
