Which will be next money making machines in Pharma Sector

If you are talking of multibaggers, I would not look beyond granules india or shilpa Medicare. Shilpa has better barriers for the long run but granules appears to be more efficiently managed from a financial perspective, but very marginally.

 

Multibaggers... Suven and Granules appear to be great picks.

Disclaimer: I hold Suven in my LT portfolio.

 

Pharma has always been considered as a defensive sector and was never the choice for the growth hungry investors.Recently due to positive news and lot of media attention I guess the sector has turned around lot of heads and now been perceived as a growth sector and better choice even above IT sector.

To play the pharma growth story I would think that of the total allocation,70% should be put in pharma large+mid caps MF's and rest 30% should be distributed among 2-3 stories that are already discussed here and are considered as 5X or 10X multi baggers stories.

Suggestions invited.

Ps - I am planning to allocate some capital to the pharma companies very soon.

 

I think valuations are prohibitive. Granules and JB Chemicals look okay.

 

Pharma is considered as a defensive sector but valuations are high at this level
correction is needed in pharma

 

Among the larger ones, Aurobindo is an excellent play. Among the midcaps, I like Granules and Shilpa. Shilpa might appear expensive at first glance, but a more detailed study will show that the revenue pool they are addressing, and clear product pipeline growth till 2028 justifies it. Of course, the stock has run up really sharply in the first half of this year. But from a four year + horizon I cant think of a better place to park a part of my money. Happily, apart from being a superb growth stock the management has shown they are not averse to giving bonuses as well.

With respect to granules India; based on a Wikipedia search I found out that it was incorporated in 1984 as Triton Laboratories. Subsequently, much later, Granules India was established. What happened to Triton? I want to get to the bottom of this to see if this can give us some insight into ownership integrity.

HISTORY AND BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY

Granules India Ltd (GIL) was incorporated as a Private Limited Company on March 16, 1991 and was later converted into a Public Limited Company on February 8, 1993. GIL commenced its operations in April 1991 as a merchant exporter of bulk drugs like Paracetamol, Guaifenesin and Chloro Pheniramine Maleste. It has been exportingmainly to the developed markets such as U.S.A., Europe, Mexico and Hongkong. Since 1992, GIL concentrated on export of Paracetamol powder, which was procured from a Group Company, M/s.Triton Laboratories Pvt Ltd (TLPL), a small scale unit. In 1993-94, the international prices of bulk drugs like Paracetamol were under pressure and GIL decided to enter into value added areas.

In April 1993, GIL also joined as a partner of M/s.Triton Laboratories (TL), a partnership firm promoted by the promoters in 1985. After GIL became a partner. TL crested facilities for manufacture of DC blends of Paracetamol and directly entered into its export market. Later, TL decided to diversify into manufacturing of bulk drugs and started implementing a project for the same. In August 1994, as part of consolidation and restructuring the Group's operations. TL was dissolved and its assets and liabilities were taken over by GIL at book value. The assets were independently valued by Shri S.Deshpande, Chartered Engineer and approved valuer.

Thank you. Clearly it was all done with no apparent malafide intent, if it was absorbed into Granules India. Thank you for clearing up this lingering doubt in my head since last evening. This makes me more comfortable.

 

Granules India is recommended by maximum persons here and also backed by large no of analysts.Although I am not expert in Pharma ,but my only worry is its Popularity. What is view of other friends on Granules India and my worry on its popularity. Market Gurus always advise against popularity.

 

Aurobindo still better than granules....though granules i have bought recently alongwith FDC ( both stocks returning over 30% in less than two months)

Aurobindo is already a 10x + for me

 

The sad part about pharma is that it prospers at the sickness of the human race......

So one way to going about researching pharma companies is identifying what are the major illnesses prevailent and likely to be so (afflict only more humans - like hypertension, cancer, diabetes, pain) and go for companies which manufacture drugs for these

 

Yes you are correct , many quality companies are there like Lupin , Sunpharma , Novartis ,Pfizer , Sanofi ,
Glaxo smith ...Top class management companies are available but we should buy at reasonable values in corrections ..

 

If everyone is recommending granules then investors be cautious, go for company which is not in limelight and have potential to grow.

 

LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDICINE!!!

So be in the 'company' which produces and promotes laughter.

Its the best pharma company.

All other make profit from the illness of the human population

 

JB Chem has touched Rs. 310 I TOLD YOU!!

 

But,Sir, how much correction is required for Margin Of Safety? This has always been a question before me.
