  • Significant Profitability Improvement: EBITDA increased 72% YoY in Q2FY27 and H1FY27, with over 350bps EBITDA margin expansion in both periods. This was driven by higher capacity utilization, operating leverage, disciplined execution, and sustained cost optimization initiatives.
  • Robust RFP Activity and Order Inflows: Added 22 new customers and successfully hosted 110 customer audits in H1FY27.
  • Best-in-Class Quality & Compliance: Successfully completed 12 regulatory inspections and 110 customer audits during H1FY27, while maintaining the Company's track record of no Official Action Indicated classifications across US FDA inspections.
  • Upgrade FY27 Outlook: Based on the strong first-half performance and continued business momentum, we upgrade our FY27 outlook and now expect revenue growth of 19% to 20%, accompanied by meaningfully higher profitability.

Nandini Piramal, Chairperson, Piramal Pharma Limited said, "We delivered a strong H1FY27, with revenue growth of 23% and EBITDA margin expansion of over 350 basis points, driven by healthy demand across our businesses, disciplined execution, and improved operating leverage. The performance was led by our CDMO business, which grew 28% on the back of strong order inflows and robust execution. Our CHG business complemented this momentum with 24% growth, supported by inhalation anesthesia sales in ex-US markets and the integration of the Kenalog, while Consumer Healthcare continued to deliver steady 14% growth through the strong performance of Power Brands and e-commerce.

With H2 typically stronger than H1, we are well positioned to deliver a strong full-year performance, supported by a healthy order book, encouraging customer engagement, and continued operating discipline."
