  • Anticipated higher growth to resume from FY26 onwards driven by new manufacturing facilities (Unit-3) and commercial launch of more molecules, especially in CMS segment.
  • Growing interest from customers with larger pipelines, primarily biotech companies being acquired by Big Pharma, expanding future opportunities.
  • CMS business is lumpy and better measured annually rather than quarterly.
  • Long-term growth is linked to expanding specialty product portfolio in GDS and CMS capabilities.
  • Capacity expansion in Unit-3 and extension of Unit-1 to meet anticipated demand over the next 3-5 years.
  • Growth rates in previous years (24%-30% YoY) are not expected to be sustainable consistently.
