New Delhi: Aurobindo Pharma on Saturday reported a 41 percent decline in its consolidated net profit at Rs 409 crore for the second quarter ended September 30, 2022.
The Hyderabad-based drug firm had posted a net profit of Rs 697 crore in the July-September period of last fiscal.

"However, we are confident that our robust pipeline of new products will provide impetus to the future growth trajectory," he added.
Reddy noted that the company's continued focus on biosimilars, R&D, innovation, and increasing manufacturing capacity will enhance its product offerings in various markets.
"We are confident that, the right measures and growth-led strategies will help improve our profitability and margins over the medium to long term," he added.
