New Delhi: Zydus Wellness Limited has expanded its international presence by incorporating two new step-down wholly owned subsidiaries through its wholly owned subsidiary, Zydus Wellness International DMCC (ZWID), UAE, in Ireland and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
According to the company, Zydus Wellness (EU) Limited (ZWEL) was incorporated in Ireland on June 23, 2026, with the Certificate of Incorporation received at 3:36 PM (IST) on the same day. Subsequently, Zydus Wellness Trading L.L.C. (ZWTL) was incorporated in Dubai, UAE on June 24, 2026, with the Certificate of Incorporation received at 4:18 PM (IST).
The company stated that both entities have been incorporated by ZWID, which holds 100% ownership in each of the newly established subsidiaries.For the Ireland entity, ZWEL has an authorised share capital of €100, divided into 100 ordinary shares of €1 each, all of which have been subscribed by ZWID. The company said ZWEL has not yet commenced operations and therefore has nil turnover. The subsidiary will operate in the Vitamins, Minerals and Supplements (VMS) segment and has been incorporated to support business expansion.
Similarly, ZWTL in Dubai has a share capital of AED 300,000, divided into 300 shares of AED 1,000 each, with all shares subscribed by ZWID. The company stated that ZWTL also has nil turnover as operations are yet to commence. The subsidiary will focus on Food and Nutrition, including Vitamins, Minerals and Supplements (VMS), Nutraceuticals and Personal Care, with the incorporation intended to facilitate business expansion.
Zydus Wellness clarified that both incorporations do not constitute related-party transactions, as the subsidiaries are newly incorporated entities. The company further stated that none of its promoters, promoter group entities or group companies have any interest in the new subsidiaries, except ZWID, which owns 100% of their share capital.
The company also informed investors that no governmental or regulatory approvals were required for either incorporation. Since both entities have been newly established, there is no acquisition cost or purchase price applicable beyond the respective cash share capital subscriptions.
According to the disclosures, the consideration for both incorporations was in cash. ZWID subscribed to 100 ordinary shares of €1 each in Zydus Wellness (EU) Limited and 300 shares of AED 1,000 each in Zydus Wellness Trading L.L.C., resulting in complete ownership and control of both subsidiaries.
The company stated that ZWEL will have its presence in Ireland, while ZWTL will operate from the United Arab Emirates. As both companies have only recently been incorporated, they have no operating history or turnover.
According to the regulatory filings submitted by Zydus Wellness to the BSE and NSE, the establishment of the two wholly owned step-down subsidiaries is aimed at strengthening the company's international operations and supporting future business expansion in Europe and the Middle East across its nutrition, vitamins, minerals, supplements, nutraceuticals and personal care businesses.
