Shapoorji Pallonji Mistry and Kairus Dadachanjii-led Kaisha Group, which recently exited a joint venture with German speciality glass company Schott, is now looking to launch its own pharma products in about six months.

Kaisha Group has several companies under its fold such as Kaisha Lifesciences, Sovereign Pharma, Kaisha Packaging, which cover the entire value chain from drug manufacturing to packaging.
