Growth
Q2 revenue +43% YoY, but ₹53 Cr one-time milestone inflates it. API +16%, volume-led, the organic core.
Outlook
FY27 guidance maintained: ~20% revenue growth, ~25% EBITDA growth, ±5ppt. Annual capex ₹200–300 Cr.
Risks
Milestone-driven revenue is lumpy; receivables jumped to ₹268 Cr; API price pressure; US approval slipping to late CY27.
