Piramal Pharma Limited has been in focus on Wednesday following updates on a recent US FDA inspection. On February 19, 2025, Piramal Pharma share price opened at ₹190.00, down from its previous close of ₹197.66. However, at 11:10 AM, the share price of Piramal Pharma was trading at ₹202.17, up by 2.28% on the NSE. The stock price touched its day’s high so far at ₹203.79.
Piramal Pharma informed the stock exchanges that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) conducted a General Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) inspection at its Turbhe facility from February 11 to February 17, 2025. At the end of the inspection, the FDA issued a Form-483 with six observations. The company clarified that these observations were related to procedural improvements and not data integrity issues.
Piramal Pharma is preparing a detailed response to the observations and is confident of resolving them within the stipulated timeline. The company reiterated its commitment to maintaining high compliance standards.
For 9M FY 2025, Piramal Pharma reported a 14% YoY growth in revenue from operations, primarily driven by strong performance in the CDMO business. EBITDA grew by 20% YoY, supported by operating leverage, cost optimisation initiatives, and a superior revenue mix. The company maintained a stable net-debt to EBITDA ratio of 2.8x while upholding its best-in-class quality track record, with no pending observations at any US FDA-inspected sites.
In a significant sustainability move, Piramal Pharma converted the coal-fired steam boiler at its Digwal facility to operate on biomass briquettes, a carbon-neutral fuel source, reducing ~24,000 tCO2e GHG emissions annually, about 17% of its total emissions.
