CHAIRMANS MESSAGE
My Dear Shareowners, As a young entrepreneur, I was always driven by ideas that would help improvepeoples lives, which is what led me to set up Lupin in 1968. Lupin embodies myvision to fight life-threatening diseases by manufacturing drugs of the highestsocial priority and quality medicines at affordable prices. It personifies the deepinter-connect between what we do and what society needs.
I am proud to say that today Lupin develops and manufactures drugs with theobjective to treat disease, to heal and enrich human life. The better we do this, thebetter we are able to serve the community, the happier we are able to make people.
As a result, happiness is not a business by-product, it is the critical bottomline ofall that we have ever done and will continue to do at Lupin.
This overarching bottomline is the sum of all that every Lupinytt works towardsat every level, function and location of our business, globally.
Some would measure our success by our leadership credentials, growthin revenues, profits, market shares, customer service records and marketcapitalisation. We, at Lupin, measure it by looking at how many new products andtechnology platforms we develop, how many lives we touch, how we make qualitymedicines more accessible and affordable to the common man globally. This is ourindex of success and happiness.
My vision for Lupin, from ` 5000 to USD 5 billion in 50 years, is but thebeginning for a bigger more pertinent goal, a happier tomorrow.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Desh Bandhu GuptaFounder and ChairmanLupin Limited

MANAGING DIRECTORS LETTER
It has been another strong year forus. A year, where we continued tomaintain and grow our leadershippositions in all markets of directoperations. A year of heightenedactivity where we launched newproducts, expanded our productpipelines and consolidated ouroperations globally. This has notonly helped us create one of the mostdifferentiated, quality businessesbut also arguably one of the bestand most exciting companies in thepharmaceutical industry globally.
Growth and Performance at Lupinis a never - ending quest forExcellence, engineered to delivervalue; value that has enabled 8 yearsof sustained growth and leadership. At Lupin, excellence is derived froma culture that is engineered towardscreating value across the entireorganisation eco-system throughperceptible differentiation. We havefocused on three distinct elements of
business for creating a differentiatedparadigm products, processesand people. Operational excellenceand incremental innovation arecommon threads that run across ourentire fabric and help us translateconceptual constructs into value -enhancing outcomes. An approach,that has not only made the Companyone of the most innovative from aresearch and technical operations
standpoint, but also an employerof choice. An Excellence ethic, thathas helped Lupin plug in some ofthe best growth numbers in thepharmaceutical world; a CAGR of27.3% in Gross Sales, 33.9% inEBITDA and 33.6% in Net Profitsfor the last 8 Years. Sustainedperformance, that has made theCompany the 8th largest genericspharmaceutical company globallyby market capitalisation andthe 3rd largest Indianpharmaceutical company.
Trends & PerformanceOver the last 5 years, the globalpharmaceutical environment hasbecome increasingly volatile andchallenging due to pressures createdby drying research pipelines which hasled to hyper-competition, the blurringof boundaries between erstwhileinnovator companies and genericplayers as they rush to compete ineach others spaces. Higher input
costs, the high cost of bringingproducts to the marketplace coupledwith gradual decline in realisationsis also affecting financial viability.Increased regulatory rigor, disciplinetherein and market diversity havealso led to increased complexity interms of business opportunities thatone chooses to address; the choice ofmarkets, the business and the productmix therein.

JAPANDuring FY 2013, Lupin maintained itsupward growth trajectory, clocking insales of JPY 19,785 million, growingby 39% over the previous year. Lupin,today is the 7th largest generic playerin the Japanese market and has overthe years, built a strong presencein the Neurology, Cardiovascular,Gastroenterology, Respiratory andInjectables segments.
During the year, the Company alsoconsolidated and focused on integratingIrom Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (IP),
a niche injectables company thatit had acquired during FY 2012.IP has a significant presence in theDPC hospital segment within the Japanese pharmaceutical market. IP isin the business of manufacturing andmarketing injectable products, mainlyampoules and bags. The IP marketingand sales team covers roughly about 80%of the DPC hospitals in the country.
OutlookThe Japanese pharmaceutical marketis the second largest pharmaceuticalmarket in the world and is valued atover USD 110 billion. The Japanesegenerics pharmaceutical industry haswitnessed a lot of changes over the last7 years; developments like incentivesannounced by government to promotegenerics, increased competition frominternational generics players and entryof innovator pharma companies into the Japanese generics space, which led to notonly enhawnced opportunities but alsoheightened activity and competition.
At the end of March 2013, Japanesegenerics market penetration was
at 26.5%, lower than the Japanesegovernments stated target of achievinga 30% generics penetration by FY 2012.In March, the Japanese government seta new target of 34.3% generics marketpenetration by the year 2017, whichtranslates into an additional 30-35%volumes getting genericised over thenext 4-5 years. In addition, patents formolecules worth USD 14-16 billionare likely to expire by 2017. Both theseopportunities translate into significantmarket opportunities for Lupin.
The Company expects to address theseopportunities by investing in creatinga robust pipeline of niche products andback-ending manufacturing of a few keyproducts to its plants in India. Lupinexpects to file 15 new products in Japan
over the next two years. During the year,Lupin received three product approvals ofits Goa plant from the Japanese HealthMinistry and the commercialisation ofthese products has already commenced.Lupin also commercialised two APIs in Japan during the year and expects to fileclose to ten DMFs for the market in thenext two years.

The global API market continues togrow and is currently valued at overUSD 110 billion. Patent expiries inadvanced markets like the US andEurope, growth emerging markets anddemand for new bio-generic drugs areboosting the growth of the global API industry.
Lupin brings to its API business adistinctive focus. Right from the1980s, the Company recognised thatthere were two ways of growing the API business: manufacture a large APIproduct basket, or pick a handful ofpromising APIs in select therapeuticcategories and grow them over thelong-term. Lupin consciously chosethe latter option and focused on not
only building competencies and addingscale in those segments but moreimportantly, building efficiencies thatwould make it the undisputed leader inthese products of choice. Operationalefficiencies built not only with a viewto protect market share and improvemargins but also to add scale toforge better synergies with our globalformulations business. Efficiencies thathave enabled us to emerge as one of the
most vertically integrated global genericformulations majors.
This focus has ensured that Lupinremains the global leader in therapeuticsegments such as Cephalosporins,CVS and the Anti-TB space for morethan a decade. The Company remains
the undisputed No. 1 globally in Anti-TB products such as Rifampicin,Pyrazinamide and Ethambutol, andCephalosporins such as Cephalexin andCefaclor and their intermediates.
FY 2013 was a record year for theCompanys API business. The businessclocked in revenues of ` 9,498 millionin FY 2013. We service some theleading pharmaceutical companies in
the world; clients who have stayedwith us for over a decade which isa testament to the quality of ourproducts and the depth of ourrelationships. We continue to add morecompanies to our growing customerlist and have also made rapid inroadsinto new markets like Latin America,Russia and other East Europeancountries. Add to this, a deeper diveinto existing markets like US & Europe

In a business marked by rapid growth,increasing complexity and an expandingglobal footprint, success is not onlyderived from ones ability to deliverquality products consistently butby ensuring that the Company isdelivering in line with ever-evolvingregulatory and quality standards.
This deep compliance discipline iswhat drives our global manufacturingoperations and supply chain; right fromthe markets we choose to serve, to theproducts we develop and manufacture;
and how we supply them.Lupins global manufacturingoperations are spread across India and Japan. The Company has 12 world-class facilities (ten in India and two in Japan) manufacturing and supplying APIs and formulations approved byleading pharmaceutical regulatoryauthorities like the US FDA, WorldHealth Organisation, MHRA (UK),
TGA (Australia), MHLW (Japan), ANVISA (Brazil) and MCC (South Africa). These world-class facilitiesembody a culture of continuous
improvement to deliver complexproducts with optimum efficiency. With a focus on maintaining the rightefficiencies, Lupin has continued onits quest for manufacturing excellence,focusing on cost reduction usingprinciples of six sigma and leanmanufacturing.
We believe Quality and RegulatoryCompliance not only have to beembedded into the product but haveto be built into people, systems, andprocesses through a systematic process
of continuous training and knowledgesharing. The Company today hasover 700 Global Corporate Quality Assurance professionals spread acrossall manufacturing locations engaged indeveloping and implementing policiesthat ensure quality and compliance withglobal regulatory standards.
Consistency in meeting customerexpectations and meeting regulatoryquality and compliance norms arethe true enablers and the criticaldifferentiator that has made Lupin theglobal generic powerhouse it is today.
At Lupin, we believe that there are no shortcuts toQuality and constant compliance is the only way tobuild a global manufacturing operation; the onlyway that a company can do meaningful business inany market within the pharmaceutical world.
