Natco logs record net in FY25, headwinds for U.S. unit a concern

 


Natco Pharma estimates a possible dip in revenue by 20% and profit by as much 30% in FY26 on account of geopolitical uncertainties and pricing pressure in its core product portfolio in U.S. and due to increased research and development (R&D) experises On the back of a strong cash position of more than ₹3,000 crore as of March 31, 2025, it is preparing for headwinds coming from U.S. business during FY26. The Hyderabad-based ge-neric drugmaker said this announcing a consolidated net profit for FY25 at 1,883.4 crore and a total revenue of ₹4,784 crore, both highest thus far. While net profit was a rise of 36% compared with *1,388.3 crore in 2023-24, total revenue was 16% higher from ₹4,126.9 crore a year earlier. The guidance for the current fiscal comes after vice-chairman and CEO Rajeev Nannapaneni in Fe-bruary this year told inves-tors, in the backdrop of U.S. threatening high ta-riffs on pharma imports, about the need for a front-end manufacturing in the U.S. "That's the only way you can go forward. Ap-pears to be the only solu-tion," he had said. For Q4, Natco posted 5% higher net profit at ₹406 crore on an almost 16% rise in revene to ₹1,287.3 crore.

GPL REVIEW

 The GPL (Gnanam Premier League) is also known as the Girls Premier League. There are a total of four teams participating: Chola Knight Riders, Maratha Royals, Sengipatti Super Singhams, and Delta Dare Devils. Each team has two owners and one captain. Player selection happens through an auction, and players are divided into three categories: Platinum, Gold, and Silver. The GPL is held for one week at the Gnanam School of Business playground. Through this activity, students — including myself — can practically learn management and business skills behind the game of cricket. My favourite player is Vijay because of his excellent fielding skills. Thank you!
