Jammu Facility and Regulatory Milestones
The Jammu (Kathua) facility completed its first full year of operations, achieving around ₹300 crores in revenue for FY26, with an exit quarterly run rate of ₹90 crores-plus. Management confirmed the facility is nearing EBITDA breakeven and is expected to turn EBITDA positive in the coming quarter. CFO Mr. Lokesh Bhasin noted that the ex-Jammu EBITDA margin of the business is approximately 18%. During the earnings call Q&A, management confirmed that the Jammu facility caters to both CDMO and Branded Generics business areas across all geographies, though a facility-wise revenue breakup was not disclosed. The company also received key certifications during the year, including UK-MHRA approval for its cephalosporin facility at Baddi and PIC/S certification through SMDC Ukraine for its Jammu blocks, supporting entry into regulated international markets including Canada, UK, Europe, and Australia.
Baddi Expansion and Capital Expenditure Plans
Management highlighted that the Baddi general block facilities are operating at higher utilisation, prompting the acquisition of a land parcel at Baddi for potential expansion of the general oral solid dosage portfolio. The proposed expansion covers general oral tablet, capsule, and oral liquid facilities and is intended to relieve capacity pressure on the existing Baddi portfolio. The overall capital outlay for the proposed expansion is anticipated to be in the range of ₹150 crores to ₹170 crores, spread across FY27 and FY28, with the revenue potential of the new block estimated at ₹450 crores to ₹500 crores at optimum utilisation. Management noted that any new greenfield project typically takes approximately 1.5 years before commercial production commences, meaning the associated depreciation and interest costs are expected to partly impact FY28 at the earliest. Sharon Bio, acquired over two years ago, reported revenue of around ₹240 crores for FY26, with a margin profile better than the company's average EBITDA margin, given its focus on export regulated markets.
Outlook and Dividend
Looking ahead, management expressed confidence in delivering 20%-plus revenue growth for FY27, with EBITDA growth expected to outperform revenue growth as the Jammu plant utilisation ramps up further, and PAT growth anticipated to outpace EBITDA growth given that depreciation and finance costs related to the Jammu facility are largely fixed and already reflected in the base. On the product pipeline, management indicated that the company is working on semaglutide in its R&D division, targeting a wave-2 market entry approach. The Board of Directors had approved an interim dividend of ₹2 per equity share (face value ₹10 per share) at its meeting held on 23 January 2026. The equity share capital remained unchanged at ₹572.25 million across all reported periods. The transcript of the earnings call held on 08 May 2026 has been made available on the company's website.
