Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) business of SBL is an excellent strategic fit for the Company given that it has fermentation-based products portfolio with a manufacturing facility at Masar (near Vadodara, Gujarat which is in proximity to the Company’s existing facility at Dabhasa) and can meet strategic and commercial objectives.
