During the year under review, the pharmaceutical industry in India which was experiencing double digit growth was impacted to some extent due to demonetisation and implementation of Goods and Services (GST) Tax Act.

However, it is expected that the Industry will continue to grow going forward.

In line with the National Health Policy, the Government of India has issued a draft Pharmaceutical Policy and sought opinions from various stakeholders. The draft policy aims to streamline the systems of manufacturing and marketing of pharmaceuticals/medicines to achieve the primary goals of the Health Policy to provide affordable health care to all. The Industry continued to face challenges due to imposition of price controls and bringing many products under the ambit of National List of Essential Medicines.

The Industry consisting of Indian and foreign players is witnessing increased spends on R&D initiatives focusing on expanding traditional generic portfolios.

(b) Opportunities and Threats:

The pharma business related with basic human needs and introduction of innovative and cost effective medicines enjoys maximum opportunities in a densely populated country like India.

Availability of sub-standards and substitute products in the market, fierce competition are major threats to the business stability for a small size Company like ours. However, the management is taking all necessary steps and continuously adopting the strategy not only to stand in the market but to perform impressively under the current scenario.

Indian pharma companies will face competition from big pharma companies, backed by huge financial muscle. Generic drugs offer a cost effective alternative to drugs innovators and significant savings to customers.

(e) Risks and concerns:

The business of your Company is also exposed to few risks. Your Company is subject to various laws including drug pricing and other laws impacting the operations of the Company.

Risks, liabilities and losses are part and parcel of any industry and need to be tackled through well forecasted strategies and actions.

(f) Internal control systems and their adequacy:

The Company ensures the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to company''s policies, the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable financial information, as required under the Companies Act, 2013. The statutory auditors while conducting the statutory audit, review and evaluate the internal controls and their observations are discussed with the Audit committee of the Board. Other statutory requirements especially, in respect of pharmaceutical business are also vigorously followed in order to have better internal controls over the affairs of the Company.

(g) Discussion on financial performance with respect to operational performance:

Your Company''s performance during the year in terms of Turnover was better than the previous year. The Operating profit during the year was marginally better than previous year. However, Net Profit After Tax during the year under review was reduced by 11.66%. The financial performance is expected due to better margins, control over the cost.
