Vishnukant Bhutada, managing director of Shilpa Medicare, said, FY25 performance reflects our pursuit of a differentiated business model enabling us to grow with improved profitability.
In FY25, Shilpa Medicare has emerged stronger, turning years of strategic investments and relentless perseverance into remarkable achievements in differentiated initiatives like the launch of two NDAs in US market, filing of transdermal patch product in EU, SEC clearance of Nor-UDCA in India and OLC filing by our partner with US FDA. Our unwavering commitment to innovation and R&D has borne fruit, with a significant breakthrough in out-licensing our flagship productrecombinant human albuminfor commercialization across EU region in strategic partnership with Orion Corporation.
Besides this, we also saw a very successful year on the regulatory front, as we received EIR for our API Unit 1, along with EU GMP certifications for our FDF Unit 6 (having ODF & TDP manufacturing capabilities) and for our Biologics unit. I believe this will help in enabling us to further scale up our biologics CDMO platform and give us the opportunity to monetize our biosimilar pipeline for large regulated markets.
With asset utilization improvement across key verticals, we remain confident of delivering improved profitability in FY26. As we advance, we remain committed to leveraging our R&D strengths, regulatory compliance, and operational agility to create long-term value.

Chandigarh MC buildings set to get rooftop solar panels under rent-a-roof model
Chandigarh: In a significant move, approximately 100 buildings of the municipal corporation (MC) are all set to have solar energy on their rooftops, as the Chandigarh Renewable Energy and Science and Technology (CREST) has sent a detailed MoU to be signed with the corporation for this project. As per the proposal, the MC will not have to spend even a single penny on this project, and they will earn around Rs 40 lakh annually as rent from the private company. Now, this detailed MoU is coming in the monthly general house meeting of the MC, scheduled for Tuesday, for deliberation and subsequent approval of the members. As per the proposal, the solar panels will be installed under a 'Rent-a-Roof', Resco Model (Renewable Energy Service Company) framework, where the selected company through bids will install the solar on all the selected buildings' rooftops, maintain them, and pay rent to the MC. The move came following a high-level meeting under the chairmanship of chief secretary Rajiv Verma, recently. The proposal of the CREST, a copy of which is with TOI, reads, "Chandigarh administration has been consistently working towards the saturation of rooftop solar installations across all govt and private buildings in the city. To utilise this potential effectively, CREST proposes the implementation of grid-connected rooftop solar plants on MC buildings through the 'rent-a-roof' framework. Under this model, the developer offering the highest rooftop rent per unit of energy generated shall be selected through competitive bidding. This will ensure regular revenue for MC, with zero capital expenditure or maintenance responsibility." The letter further reads, "The rent-a-roof approach allows MC to monetise its rooftop assets, receive guaranteed bi-monthly income, and avoid long-term tariff commitments. The total feasible rooftop solar capacity assessed on MC buildings is approximately 3MW. Based on generation potential and other parameters, MC stands to earn an estimated Rs 39-40 lakh per year, depending on the rent rate received through bidding." Following this, CREST has requested approval of the proposed model and MoU and timely consent to initiate the process. Once approved by the MC's general house, the CREST shall thereafter proceed with the tendering and execution of the project in coordination with the MC. Key Terms of MoU Rooftop rent to be paid by the Resco developer bi-monthly based on the energy generation under the gross metering arrangement No damage to MC roofs - any structural damage to be repaired by the Resco Water supply for periodic solar panel cleaning to be provided by MC Plant security to be provided by MC Insurance and operational responsibilities lie with Resco Escrow mechanism for transparent and timely rent transfers

Investors eye possible US-Europe trade deal as deadline looms
Investors are hopeful a potential trade deal between the U.S. and European Union could bring more certainty to markets ahead of next Friday's tariffs deadline. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen was set to meet U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday in Scotland after EU officials and diplomats said they expected to reach a framework deal this weekend. Trump on Friday said there was a 50-50 chance or perhaps less that the U.S. would reach a trade agreement with the EU. ADVERTISEMENT Trade tensions between the U.S. and Europe may have provided some investors with a rationale to be cautious, said Sameer Samana, head of global equities and real assets at the Wells Fargo Investment Institute. "It's one of our largest trading relationships... So if that last piece falls into place, then you've probably got at the margin more people that have to get back in the markets," Samana said. "It's been a source of uncertainty that will go away." A deal would likely include a 15% baseline tariff on all EU goods entering the U.S. and probably a 50% tariff on European steel and aluminum, the officials and diplomats said. Optimism over easing trade tensions broadly has helped push U.S. stocks to record highs. Trump's April 2 "Liberation Day" announcement of sweeping global tariffs sent stocks plunging in the immediate aftermath, due to spiking fears about a recession that have since faded. Still, investors have been bracing for increased volatility heading into August 1, which the U.S. has set as a deadline for raising levies on a broad swath of trading partners. ADVERTISEMENT The EU is facing U.S. tariffs on more than 70% of its exports - 50% on steel and aluminum, 25% on cars and car parts and a 10% levy on most other EU goods, which Trump has said he would hike to 30% on August 1. Hopes for a deal with Europe rose after Trump struck a trade agreement with Japan earlier in the week. "The deal with Japan and the likely one soon with the EU are especially important given both are major U.S. trading partners, together accounting for about a quarter of all goods imports," analysts at Capital Economics said in a note on Friday. ADVERTISEMENT In the agreement with Japan, the country's auto sector, which accounts for more than a quarter of its U.S. exports, will see existing tariffs cut to 15% from levies totaling 27.5% previously. An agreement that also lowers EU auto tariffs to 15% "would be no small deal" for the region as well, as about 10% of its shipments to the U.S. are in the same category, Capital Economics said. Investors over the weekend were also watching for developments on trade between the U.S. and China. Officials from the two countries plan to meet in Stockholm next week to discuss extending an August 12 deadline for negotiating a deal.
