CIPLA Q2 RESULT

Drug major Cipla posted its consolidated net profit of Rs 797 crore, an increase of 12 per cent for the second quarter ended September 30 on the back of robust sales across domestic and the US market.

Nilesh Jain, technical analyst from Zee Business said, "The stock result is in line with the estimates of the D street. From the last 13- 14 trading sessions, the stock was gradually moving higher. It is specifically profit booking, nothing major for the stock to correct marginally."  

The Mumbai-based drug maker's total revenue from operations rose to Rs 5,829 crore for the September quarter from Rs 5,520 crore in the year-ago period, Cipla said in a regulatory filing.

Commenting on the Q2 results, Cipla MD and Global CEO Umang Vohra said the company's performance reflects strong momentum in the domestic business and solid execution on differentiated portfolios in the US.

Brokerages are mixed on Cipla stock following the announcement of the second quarter results.
