Cipla has offered over $500 million to buy out South African affiliate Cipla Medpro sweetening its bid by 17 percent after earlier talks stalled over price. The board of Cipla Medpro, South Africa's third-largest generic drug firm, urged shareholders to vote for the cash offer, endorsing a deal that appeared to have fallen apart just weeks ago. In November Cipla offered $215 million for 51 percent of the company. Company would offer 10 rand per share, up from its initial bid of 8.55 rand and valuing the company at around 4.5 billion rand ($508 million). The offer represents a 30 percent premium to the last closing price before deal talks were first announced.  Cipla supplies the bulk of the South African company's drugs through a long-standing agreement; however it has never owned a stake in the Cape Town-based company. Just days after the initial offer, Cipla Medpro won a 1.4 billion rand contract from the South African government to supply HIV/AIDs drugs to local hospitals, sending its shares above the offer price on speculation of a sweetened bid.
