Notes:

  1. The Company is essentially in the pharmaceutical business segment.
  2. The Directors at their meeting held today recommended payment of dividend of Rs.2 per equity share (face value Rs.2) for the year 2009-2010 amounting to Rs. 160.58 crores.
  3. The above results include results of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary viz., Cipla FZE.
  4. In 2003 the Company received notice of demand from the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority, Government of India on account of alleged overcharging in respect of certain drugs under the Drug Price Control Order. This was contested before the jurisdictional High courts wherein it was held in favour of the Company. The orders were challenged before the Hon'ble Supreme Court by the Government. The Hon'ble Supreme Court by separate orders restored the matter to the jurisdictional High Court for interpreting the Drug Policy on the basis of directions and principles laid down by them and also restrained the Government from taking any coercive action against the Company.  The Company has been legally advised that on the basis of these orders there is no probability of demand crystalising. Hence no provision is considered necessary in respect of notice of demand aggregating to Rs.1157.12 crores (inclusive of interest) for the period July 1995 to April 2009.
  5. The Audited Standalone financial results are available on the Company's website i.e.www.cipla.com. The key standalone financial information for the year 2009 – 2010 are as under:

  6. *In March 2010, the Company sold its intellectual property rights and technical knowhow of “i-pill”, an emergency contraceptive brand, to Piramal Healthcare Limited for the territory of India at an aggregate consideration of Rs. 95 crores.
  7. The paid-up equity share capital stands increased to Rs.160.58 crores (80,29,21,357 equity shares of Rs.2 each) upon allotment of 2,56,30,000 equity shares of Rs.2 each issued at a price of Rs.263.75 (including premium of Rs.261.75) under Qualified Institutions Placement (QIP) during the quarter ended September 2009.
