Torrent Pharmaceuticals on Tuesday said its consolidated net profit declined by 16 per cent to Rs 249 crore for the third quarter ended December 2021, on account of muted performance in the US market.
"The drug maker had posted a net profit of Rs 297 crore in the October-December period of 2020-21 fiscal," reports PTI.
The company's revenue from operations in the third quarter stood at Rs 2,108 crore, as compared to Rs 1,995 crore in the same period of previous fiscal, Torrent Pharmaceuticals said in a statement.
"Due to the prolonged delays in reinspection of our US facilities on account of the pandemic, coupled with higher than anticipated pricing pressure, our US business has been adversely affected during this quarter," Torrent Pharmaceuticals Chairman Samir Mehta noted.
