What was highlighted was potential abuse/misuse of VP Forum for Newbies to take note of, be aware of such malpractices, nurture a healthy skepticism whenever superlatives are used, when risks are glossed over, and there isn't enough attention/discussion on downsides/risks.
Shalibhadra Finance - Investment merit - is a different matter. A healthy balanced discussion is encouraged.
Q2FY16 Results declared
BSE Results link
Revenue Growth 13%
EBITDA Growth 25% (Margin 21.61% vs 19.44%)
PBT Growth 31%
PAT Growth 30% (excluding exceptional item)
Overall looks good set of numbers, considering that we are not expecting any fireworks until US FDA approval and revenue growth thereafter.
Mr. Bhutada had already clarified after Q4FY15 results that all the ongoing initiatives will drive revenue growth by 2016 end or 2017. Until then 5-10% growth guidance was provided. They have done better than the near term guidance at least.
However, brokers have a different set of expectations.(FY16 growth: IndiaNivesh 24.5%, Karvy 23.5%)

Lot of pharma companies have started paying attention to OTC brands. This adds another revenue stream to their portfolio of products which is out price control regime and not affected by US FDA/UK MHRA inspection scares. This also helps them to migrate from pure "pharma" to quasi FMCG-pharma company. Piramal has been making conscious effort by acquiring brands like Saridon, Lacto Calamine, I-pill etc. Recent acquisition seems to in line with their OTC strategy.
Please see the article in Outlook Business about OTC brands

Hi,
I am a newbie and usually visit ValuePickr for reading/learning purpose quite a number of times in a month.
I was completely convinced about this story( and quite impressed at the research work done), until I saw that Manav's account has been deactivated( and read the thread about his communication with the Admin) I would like to thank Admin for bringing this to notice. Really enjoy this forum.
Regards

I am a member of an auto forum in which they have a good filtering mechanism. Every new thread is vetted by the Admin before it is made visible on the forum. Ofcourse it means the Admin has to read each new thread.
Rights for creating new thread can be given only after say 6 months to a new member.
Can we implement either/both here?
