- The government introduced mechanisms such as the Drug Price Control Order under the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority to deal with the issue of availability of affordable medicines.

b. Business performance, opportunities and outlook:

Due to major events like banning of 344 Fixed Dose Combinations (FDC) and GST, the IPM (Indian Parma Market) slowed down during financial year 2017-18, however the last few months trend show that it has picked-up in current financial year. Despite the slowdown your company could maintain its growth during financial year 2017-18.

Going forward, IPM is likely to be shaped by following key trends:

- Government focus on healthcare spends is increasing: Better health public infrastructure in extra-urban market, increased market access and increased drug consumption.

- Stricter Regulatory control: Regulator is playing an active role in the market now through regular oversights and stricter guidelines.

- Shift in disease profile towards non-communicable Disease: ~57% of disease burden is estimated to be of non-communicable type by 2020 from ~30% in 1990.

- Increasing innovator launches in the market: Increasing number of innovator molecule launches and significant reduction in timeline between global launch and India launch.

Dermatology is the major growth contributor for your Company during the year, as endorsed by IQVIA.

Your Company has continued the good practices of:-

- Training and development of its field managers and medical representatives on a continuous basis.

- Participation in national, state and district level conferences of super s specialties like Or thopedicians, Neurologist, Pediatricians, Consulting Physicians and Dermatologists.

- Conducting CME (Continuing Medical Education) programmes of various specialties of doctors to build the relationship with the local doctors.

The Company has launched four new Dermatology products that gave a significant boost to the total sales and helped withstand the pressures of GST. Your company has again undertaken field force expansion by adding number of headquarters to further extend the doctors ‘reach.

The FDC ban still looms large on the industry and the company is rigorously working towards alternate business plans.

c. Risk, Concerns & Threats:

The pharmaceutical product prices in India are regulated by National Pharmaceuticals Pricing Authority (NPPA). The NPPAvide its standing orders declare the ceiling price of the formulations mentioned in NLEM (National List of Essentials Medicines), beyond which the companies are restrained to fix their products'' MRP. Department of Pharmaceuticals vide its Notification dated 10thMarch 2017 has amended Schedule-I of DPCO, 2013 by substituting NLEM 2011 with NLEM 2015. As per this notification, few more products have been bought under price control, while few are removed. However, the Company’s products under price control contribute a very small amount to the total revenue.

1 NPPA had served a show cause notice to your Company alleging that a Company''s product was violating a NPPA''s standing order. However, after a Personal Hearing and detailed submission, NPPA passed a written order stating that your Company''s product did not violate the standing order. Subsequently, NPPA reviewed its own order, without having any power to review, issued show cause notices and demand notice to your Company. Your Company subsequently filed a writ petition against the demand of NPPA, at the Humble High Court of Bombay. The matter was settled in favor of your company. The NPPA after over a year filed a Special Leave Petition (SLP) (demanding Rs, 16.45 core) at the Humble Supreme Court, where the matter is pending, after being admitted for further arguments. DPCO, 1995, explicitly debars Plato review its own order, the very reason cited by Humble High Court of Bombay, while quashing the show cause notices and demand notice in their judgment dated 08thAugust, 2013 and 26th September, 2013. Your Company has been legally advised, that based on the facts and merits of the case, the demand raised by Nappies not likely to crystallize.

2. The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, vide its notification dated 10thMarch, 2017, based on the recommendation of Kolkata Committee banned 344 Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs) with immediate effect. Your Company''s seven products are affected by the said notifications which in terms of value and volume do not have substantial impact on the sales and profitability of the Company. Many Companies including your Company challenged the said notifications at the Humble High Court of Delhi. The Humble High Court, Delhi passed an order on 1st December, 2017 quashing all the notifications of the Ministry. Subsequently, the Ministry filed a special leave petition at The Humble Supreme Court against the said Judgment of the Humble High Court, Delhi. The Humble Supreme Court provided it’s judgment on 15th December, 2017, by setting aside the said judgment of Delhi High Court dated 1st December, 2017. However, the Humble Supreme Court said that the court was not clear about the conclusion arrived at by Kolkata Committee for banning 344 5 FDCs. In order to analyses in greater depth the court felt that these cases should go to the Drug Technical Advisory Board (DTAB) and / or its sub-committee formed for the said purpose, for having relook into these matters. The Humble Supreme Court has given six (6) months to them for completing the whole procedure, as stated above. Consequent to above your Company is free to manufacture, market and distribute all the seven products, covered under banned FDCs, till further order of the Humble Supreme Court. The Management is of the opinion that even if the said notifications are upheld and coming in to effect, the same will not substantially impact the sales and profitability of the Company. Your Company shall represent itself, at the hearing to be conducted by the DTAB or its sub-committee, in near future.

3. The Indian Drug Manufacturer''s Association (IDMA) has appealed the Humble Prime Minister of India to not to disturb the branded generics market in India, in response to the Indian Medical Association''s circular stating use of only Generic names in the prescription to be written by the Physicians in India. All major Pharmaceutical Companies, including your Company, are also engaged in manufacturing of branded Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs) across therapeutic segment. These products from reputed Company’s ensure quality as against plain generic drugs.

Any compulsion, in future, from the Government of India, with regard to mandating the physicians to prescribe only generic drugs and not the branded medicines will entail the patients to be at the mercy of chemist and they may be deprived of good quality products of reputed companies. Moreover, this will jeopardize the pharmaceutical industry as it will eliminate brand names, which may affect the industry adversely and may render many skilled workers unemployed.

IDMA has suggested to allow prescribing both branded and generic products together, leaving the choice to the patient to either buy generic drug or the branded quality products.

As of date, there is no clarity, in this regard, but the government''s push for making available cheap medicines through its Janaushadhi programme for the mass, could lead to such a step in future. Your Company is in the process of finding various options for such a situation.

4. The constant change in policies by the Government of India and its delays in product approvals have undesirable effect on the industry.

5. Any new policy or changes in existing policies, introduced by the government of those countries where the products of your Company are being exported or will be exported in future, could hamper the export turnover of the Company.

6. Any further increase in the number of FDC''s banned or in the number of National List of Essential Medicines (NLEM) drugs may hamper the sales and profitability of the Company.

3. Management Discussion & Analysis Report:

a. Industry Structure and Development:

The Government of India has taken several initiatives in the areas of infrastructure, easing the process of doing business, opening the doors to FDI, targeting inflation for monetary policy, campaigns on smart cities, urban development, encouraging start-ups, skill development etc. The impact of most of these measures can be gauged over a period of time and may not get reflected in the economic numbers immediately as they must hence be interpreted more in terms of laying a foundation for future growth. Currently, Indian economy is at a steady growth trajectory, which is expected to take a fast track growth drive due to above, riding on strong macroeconomic fundamentals, favorable business sentiments and downward trend in interest rates.

The Government of India unveiled ''Pharma Vision 2020'' aimed at making India a global leader in end-to-end drug manufacture. Approval time for new facilities has been reduced to boost investments. Further, the government introduced mechanisms such as the Drug Price Control Order and the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority to deal with the issue of affordability and availability of medicines.

The Indian pharma industry, which is expected to outperform the global pharma industry, will emerge as the sixth largest pharmaceutical market globally by absolute size. Branded generics dominate the pharmaceuticals market, constituting nearly 80 per cent of the market share (in terms of revenues).

According to the Department of Pharmaceutical, Ministry of Chemical and Fertilizer, Government of India, the domestic Pharma market witnessed a slowdown in the ongoing financial year owing to the Government''s efforts to make medicines affordable. The impact of this can be seen in the industry''s financials as well. The Drugs & Pharmaceuticals industry reported poor sales performance for two consecutive quarters ended September 2016.

The industry''s operating expenses rose much faster than the growth in sales. As a result, the industry''s operating profit declined, the operating margin and the industry''s net profit margin contracted, during the staid quarter. During the decade ending 2015-16, India''s drug exports grew at a CAGR of 11.9 per cent.

This growth was backed by large number of drugs going off patent, rise in the number of drug approvals and access to new markets. However, the trend, it seems, in drug exports, reversed in the ongoing financial year. During April-November 2016, drug exports fell by one per cent. This is on account of tightening of regulatory mechanism by various countries, price erosion in the US market and economic crisis in the emerging markets.

b. Business Performance, Opportunities and Outlook:

The Indian pharmaceutical market size is expected to grow immensely by 2025, driven by increasing consumer spending, rapid urbanization, and raising healthcare insurance among others.

Going forward, better growth in domestic sales would also depend on the ability of companies to align their product portfolio towards chronic therapies for diseases such as cardiovascular, anti-diabetes, anti-depression and anti-cancers that are on the rise.

The Indian government has taken many steps to reduce costs and bring down healthcare expenses. Speedy introduction of generic drugs into the market has remained in focus and its effects are to be seen, in days to come. In addition, the thrust on rural health programmes, lifesaving drugs and preventive vaccines also augurs well for the pharmaceutical companies.

Demographic trends, rise in diagnosis and treatment of chronic conditions, ageing and growing population, improved access to healthcare and increasing per capita income are the factor that will drive the future demand of the pharmaceutical products in the world.

c. Risk, Concerns & Threats:

The pharmaceutical product prices in India are regulated by National Pharmaceuticals Pricing Authority (NPPA). The NPPA vide various notifications, declares the ceiling price of the formulations mentioned in NLEM (National List of Essentials Medicines), beyond which the companies are restrained to fix their products'' MRP. Department of Pharmaceuticals vide its Notification dated 10th March 2016 has amended Schedule-I of DPCO, 2013 by substituting NLEM 2011 with NLEM, 2015. As per this notification, few more products have been bought under price control, while few are removed. However, the product in price control contributes a very small amount to the total revenue of your Company.

1. NPPA had served a show cause notice to your Company alleging that a Company''s product was violating a NPPA''s standing order. However after a Personal Hearing and detailed submission, NPPA passed a written order stating that your Company''s product did not violate the standing order. Subsequently, NPPA reviewed its own order, without having any power to review, and issued show cause notices and demand notice to your Company. Your Company subsequently filed a writ petition against the demand of NPPA, at the Hon''able High Court of Bombay. The matter was settled in favor of your company. The NPPA after over a year filed a Special Leave Petition (SLP) (demanding Rs. 16.45 crore) at the Hon''able Supreme Court, where the matter is pending, after being admitted for further arguments. DPCO, 1995, explicitly debars NPPA to review its own order, the very reason cited by Hon''able High Court of Bombay, while quashing the show cause notices and demand notice in their judgment dated 08th August, 2013 and 26th September, 2013. Your Company has been legally advised, that based on the facts and merits of the case, the demand raised by NPPA is not likely to crystallize.

2. The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, vide its notification dated 10th March, 2016 banned 344 Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs) with immediate effect. Many Companies including your Company have challenged the said notifications at the Hon''ble High Court of Delhi. Your Company''s seven products are affected by the said notifications which in terms of value and volume do not have substantial impact on the sales and profitability of the Company. The Hon''ble High Court, Delhi passed an order on 1st December, 2016 quashing all the notifications of the Ministry. Subsequently, they filed a special leave petition at The Hon’ble Supreme Court against said the Judgment of the Hon''ble High Court, Delhi. The matter, at present is pending at Supreme Court. The Management is of the opinion that even if the said notifications are upheld and coming in to effect, the same will not substantially impact the sales and profitability of the Company.

3. The Indian Drug Manufacturer''s Association (IDMA) has appealed the honorable Prime Minister of India to not to disturb the branded generics market in India, in response to the Indian Medical Association''s circular stating use of only Generic names in the prescription to be written by the Physicians in India. All major Pharmaceutical Companies, including your Company, are also engaged in manufacturing of branded Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs) across therapeutic segment. These products from reputed Company''s ensures quality as against plain generic drugs.

Any compulsion, in future, from the Government of India, with regard to mandating the physicians to prescribe only generic drugs and not the branded medicines will entail the patients to be at the mercy of chemist and thay may be deprived of good quality products of reputed Companies. Moreover, this will jeopardize the pharmaceutical industry as it will eliminate brand names, which may result in loss of revenue to the industry and rendering many skilled workers unemployed.

IDMA has suggested to allow prescribing both branded and generic products together, leaving the choice to the patient to either buy generic drug or the branded quality product.

As of date, there is no clarity, in this regard, but the government''s push for making available cheap medicines through its Janaushadhi programme for the mass, could lead to such a step in future. Your Company is in the process of finding various option for such a situation.

4. The constant change in policies by the Government of India and its delays in product approvals have undesirable effect on the industry.

5. Any further increase in the number of FDC''s banned or in the number of National List of Essential Medicines (NLEM) drugs may hamper the sales and profitability of the Company.

d. Internal Control System:

3. Management Discussion & Analysis Report:

a. Industry Structure and Development:

India enjoys an important position in the global pharmaceutical market. With a large pool of scientists and other professionals, the only way forward is to achieve new heights. Various reports which are in public domain, suggest that the Indian pharma industry is estimated to grow at a greater speed over the next five years and that it will outperform the global pharma industry with a good margin. Indian Companies rank the highest in manufacturing facilities registered with US FDA, compared to other countries.

Spending on medicines globally is expected to grow substantially in the next five years as compared to its absolute growth in the past five years. This growth will mainly come from emerging countries, while the growth from developed countries is expected to be comparatively less. Significant efforts through various schemes are made by these emerging countries to cover more people with health insurance and basic medical services, while millions still have limited access to healthcare facilities. At present, the average spending per person on healthcare is USD 609 in developed counties whereas the same is a meager USD 91 in emerging countries like ours. This indicates huge deficiencies of healthcare facilities to the masses and on other side provides huge opportunities to the pharma industry in India.

The Government of India’s “Pharma Vision 2020” is aimed at making India a global leader in end to end drug manufacturing. Affordability and availability of medicines to masses is also aimed at.

Some of the major steps initiated by the Government of India to promote the pharma sector in India are to incentivize bulk drug manufactures, to reduce dependencies on import of API through its “Make in India” plan, to provide resolution of issues and constraints faced by the pharma industry in India, to support start-ups in R&D in pharmaceutical and biotech industries and to allow FDI up to 100% for manufacturing of medical devices.

Your Company appreciates the vision of the Government of India to enable the Indian Pharma Industry to play a leading role in the global market and to ensure abundant availability, at a reasonable price within the country, with good quality pharmaceuticals for mass consumption.

b. Business Performance, Opportunities and Outlook:

The Indian Pharma Companies are expected to achieve robust growth, driven by consumer spending, rapid urbanization and rising healthcare awareness. Better growth in domestic sales would depend on the ability of companies to allign their product portfolio towards chronic therapies for critical diseases. Schemes like “Jan-Aushadh” and rural healthcare performances are in the focus of the Government of India and are expected to benefit the public at large and also the pharma companies. Invention and new technologies to treat life threatening diseases can be an engine to the robust growth expectation of the Indian Pharmaceutical Sector.

c. Risk, Concerns & Threats:

The pharmaceutical product prices in India are regulated by the National Pharmaceuticals Pricing Authority (NPPA). The NPPA, vide various notifications, declares the ceiling price of the formulations mentioned in the NLEM (National List of Essential Medicines), beyond which the companies are restrained to fix the MRP of their products. The Department of Pharmaceuticals, vide its Notification dated March 10, 2016 has amended Schedule-I of DPCO, 2013 by substituting NLEM 2011 with NLEM 2015. As per this notification, few more products have been brought under price control, while few have been removed. However, the products in price control contribute a very small amount to the total revenue of your Company.

The NPPA had served a show cause notice to your Company alleging that the pricing of a product of the Company was violating the NPPA’s standing order. However, after a personal hearing and detailed submission, the NPPA passed a written order stating that your Company’s product had not violated the standing order. Subsequently, without having any power to review, the NPPA reviewed its own order, and issued Show Cause Notices and a Demand Notice to your Company. Your Company subsequently filed a writ petition against the demand of NPPA, at the Hon’able High Court of Bombay. The matter was settled in favor of your Company. After over a year, the NPPA filed a Special Leave Petition (SLP) demanding Rs. 16.45 crore at the Hon’able Supreme Court, where the matter is pending after being admitted for further arguments. DPCO, 1995, explicitly debars the NPPA to review its own order, the very reason cited by the Hon’able High Court of Bombay, while quashing the Show Cause Notices and the Demand Notice in their judgment dated 08th August, 2013 and 26th September, 2013. Your Company has been legally advised, that based on the facts and merits of the case, the demand raised by the NPPA is not likely to crystallize.

The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, vide its notification dated 10th March, 2016 banned 344 Fixed Dose Combinations (FDCs) with immediate effect. Many Companies including your Company have challenged the said notifications at the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi. The Hon’ble Court has stayed the enforcement of the said notifications and the matter now is sub-judice. Seven products of your Company are affected by the said notifications. The Management is of the opinion that if the said notifications are upheld and come into effect, they will not substantially impact the sales and profitability of the Company.

The constant change in policies by the Government of India and its delays in product approvals have an undesirable effect on the industry.

Any further increase in the number of FDCs banned or in the number of drugs on the National List of Essential Medicines (NLEM) may hamper the profitability of the Company.

d. Internal Control System:

The Senior Management of the Company is committed to maintain and improve the internal control system of the Company which comprises of compliances, risk management, etc.

The Company has formulated various standard operating procedures and policies. Day to day operations are identified and systematically broken down in accordance with the individual activities involved.

All statutory and other dues and payments are made within the stipulated time limit. All compliances are taken care of by dedicated software, to enhance the timely compliance process. A robust internal audit system at the registered office, plant and other locations is in place with dedicated employees.

With regard to raw material, packing material and finished goods at the plant and other locations, strong systems are set up through software, to record and monitor each and every movement of such material.

Your Company’s WHO approval plant and Quality Assurance and Quality Control Department, are equipped with the latest laboratory equipments, instruments and technology, to ensure strict quality compliances of all its products within the Company’s premises.

e. Research and Development:

Various products, including Fixed Dose Combination products are being developed by your Company, for the Indian and International market at its R&D unit at Sihor. The Government of India renewed the Research and Development Unit status of your

Company’s R&D Centre, up to 31st March, 2018.

For and on behalf of the Board For Jenburkt Pharmaceuticals Ltd

The Directors immense pleasure, your Directors, present the 29th Annual Report along with the Audited Financial Statements of the Company for the Financial Year ended 31st March, 2014.

1. Summary of Financial Performance:

Year ended Year ended PARTICULARS 31st March, 31st March, 2014 2013 Rs. (lacs) Rs. (lacs)

Out of the net profits, an amount of Rs. 275.57 lacs will be utilised towards payment of dividend and dividend distribution tax.

3. Management Discussion & Analysis Report: a. Industry Structure and Development:

The Indian Pharmaceutical Industry is highly fragmented and grown across India, under two segments, the organised and the unorganised. SMEs are at the core of the growth of the industry. These SMEs are taking advantage of the demand of high quality products in India and in the global market. Hence, the Indian Government has also provided a boost to the SMEs. Noticeable progress is seen in clinical trials and innovations in the pharmaceutical industry.

The Indian Pharmaceutical Industry is poised to escalate its growth, mainly due to the potentially huge demand for innovative and world class quality drugs in India and in the overseas market, even though pricing plays a vital role for Companies in the industry. The growth in the industry is mainly driven by contract manufacturing and backward integration, resulting in quality control and reduction in cost

b. Business Performance, Opportunities and Outlook:

Your Company has been successful in reducing its borrowings by repaying foreign currency loans and all its term loans to the Bank. The Company has also reduced its working capital loan which is utilized only for export bill discount, at a significantly low rate.

India provides a huge opportunity for the pharmaceutical industry, as a whole, to prosper, by introduction and implementation of appropriate measures by the Government. A good standard of affordable health facilities are provided by the Government at non metro cities and towns. A partnership of the Government and private sector in the industry can prosper, beyond doubts, where the Government could provide the required infrastructures and the pharmaceutical companies could serve. A proper and appropriate framework by the Government, on policies affecting the pharmaceutical industry is the need of the hour.

c. Risk, Concerns & Threats:

The prices of the products of the pharmaceutical industry in India are regulated by the NPPA (National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority). The new Drug Price Control Order (DPCO), 2013, was notified in May 2013. As per the new order, a few more products will be under price control. However, the products under price control contribute a very small amount to the total revenue of the Company. The NPPA, vide notifications, regularly declares the ceiling price of formulations, beyond which the companies are restrained to fix the Maximum Retail Price (MRP) of their products.

In a matter involving one of your Company''s products, the NPPA had issued a demand notice for overcharging. After due correspondence with the NPPA, your Company had filed a writ petition in the Honble Bombay High Court challenging their demand notice. We are glad to inform you that the judgment was pronounced in your Company''s favour by the Hon''ble Bombay High Court, by quashing the demand notice. Hence, there is no pending demand from the NPPA.

Further, the constant change in policies by the Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) and its delays in approvals, have its undesirable effect on the industry. As a direct effect of this, a substantial reduction in case of new drug introductions across the industry is visible.

Expenditure on medicines is rising a lot faster in the growing economy than elsewhere. Serving the growing market is a challenge because of the intrinsic problems The industry cannot rely on its usual methods for making a profit in the matured market / countries.

The industry needs to rebalance its expenditure and invest more in R&D and be more specific in selecting therapeutic segments.

d. Internal Control and System:

The Company has sound internal control processes and systems to ensure proper asset management and operational efficiency The Company always ensures compliance with all applicable rules, regulations, laws, etc. The Audit Committee and the internal auditors ensure checks on the financial functions of the Company and the Quality Control and the Quality Assurance Departments ensure the quality of all the products of the WHO approved plant.

e. Regulatory Approvals:

The Company has already applied to the Drug Controller General of India for permission for certain newer fixed dose formulations and is awaiting their clearance. During the current year, your Company has filed dossiers for 28 products for registering them in different countries for export.

f. Human Resources:

In consonance with the Company''s avowed policy, we maintain high ethical values in our journey towards excellence.

Regular workshops and orientation programmes are conducted for different levels of employees such as Field Force, Plant and Head Office staff. “ANUBANDH" - a heart-to-heart bonding workshop was conducted during the year for QUEST and QUEST II teams. In addition, leadership development is the focus of our continuing programme for senior officers. For this cadre, we have arranged a workshop on conflict management, etc.

The Company has a well established process to attract

talent and identify strengths and to also look into areas of improvement. Overall, industrial harmony is well maintained.

g. Sales and Marketing:

In India, last year, with the introduction of DPCO, 2013, the Association of Pharmaceutical Wholesalers and Retailers demanded higher margins, even on products which were not under price control. The matter was resolved with the industry after about 2-3 months, resulting in a slight loss of sale to the Company.

Your Company focused on strengthening their brands in their respective segments during the year under review. There is a growing trend of competition from regional companies who operate either in a few districts or in a few states in India. This is apart from the competition from large organizations operating in India. Neuropathy detection camps and bone densitometry camps were carried out in various parts of the country for detection of neuropathy and osteoporosis.

Internationally, your Company has started operations in Tajikistan and Uganda. Routinely, new products do get introduced in existing markets under operation.

The strategy of your Company is to focus on long term therapies in acute and chronic ailments, by moving up the value chain continuously. As a result, a few of the Company''s brands are the preferred choice in certain segments. They rank among the top five in those segments.

h. Segment-wise Performance:

Jenburkt operates exclusively in one segment - pharmaceutical formulations.

Shri Ashish U Bhuta and Shri Dilip H Bhuta), to the exclusion of the Independent Directors (viz. Shri Bhart V.

Indian companies are well placed, given the cost advantage they have to offer. However, fragmentation of installed capacities is one of the major weaknesses.
