Growth in constant currency terms was 31% yoy. For the full year company has guided for double digit growth (in dollar terms).

Operating income climbed by 1.2x yoy to Rs2.5bn led by better than expect operating performance along with favorable business mix (launch of Singulair and ramp-up in Combivir & Plavix in US). EBITDA margins improved by 600 bps to 16.7% (higher than our estimates of 14.0%). Resultantly, the adjusted bottom line also improved to Rs1.2bn.

- We revise estimates over the next two years incorporating growth expected in US business and EM market. The company’s performance has been impacted by import alert. In addition to this, the slower ramp up of the MNC supply also impacted growth in FY12. But, now, we believe the company would continue to report strong yoy earnings (though on a lower base in FY13) on back of strong performance expected in US led by approval of Unit VI and Unit IV around the corner. We upgrade the stock to Buy from MP with a revised 9-month price target of Rs215.
