Last year, Sun Pharma and Strides Shasun (then Strides Arcolab) had inked a pact related to Ranbaxy's 'Solus' and 'Solus Care' divisions operating in the central nervous system (CNS) segment in India.

The agreement involved transfer of these two marketing divisions, along with employees to Strides, for Rs 165 crore.

Sun Pharma acquired Ranbaxy Laboratories in a $4 billion deal in 2014.
