On the outlook, Patel said, "Going ahead, differentiated launches in the US, in addition to a rebound in India business growth, which was constrained by delayed seasonality, will be critical drivers. We anticipate sustained momentum in profitability and aim for EBITDA margins of more than 24 per cent in the current fiscal year."
