Commenting on the performance Sucheth Davuluri, vice-chairman and chief executive officer of the Company, said: "We are pleased to announce another strong quarter of top line and bottom-line performance. The revenue at Rs.245.6 crores was a 20% improvement over the corresponding quarter of the last fiscal while the margins have showed an upward trajectory and closed at 19.0%. This was driven by growth across the Generic Drug Substances (GDS) and Custom Manufacturing Solutions (CMS) verticals. We remain confident of our long-term growth aspirations as well as our margin resilience."
In addition, Saharsh Davuluri, vice chairman and managing director, Neuland Labs, added: "We are pleased with the momentum shown by the CMS business while the GDS also continues to play an important part in the growth. The driver of this quarter's CMS uptick has been the strong performance from the scaleup projects which have contributed to the revenues. Unit 3 has started commercial production and we are currently shipping out 2 API's from this facility. We expect Unit 3 to be a major driver of our growth going forward."
