Now, let us look at the details of this stock.

About the Company- Kwality Pharmaceuticals

Kwality Pharmaceuticals is a prominent manufacturer and supplier of finished pharmaceutical formulations in dosage forms. Its formulations include everything from liquid orals, capsules, tablets, ointments, and ampoules to oncology, eye/ear drops, and COVID-19 medications.

The Amritsar-based pharma company specializes in dealing with customized orders as per requirements. Its products have been registered in different countries of Europe, CIS countries, Asia, Africa, and Central and South America. Kwality Pharmaceuticals is certified as ISO 14001:2004 and ISO 9001:2000 and works according to new GMP, Schedule M and WHO norms.

This company has two manufacturing plants, one in Jassur, Himachal Pradesh, and the other in Amritsar, Punjab. It keeps records of all inputs used in manufacturing as per standards laid down as SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) and tests finished goods as per SOP before selling. It employed around 496 employees, according to its last annual report in March 2021.

Reasons for This Company’s Stock Price Surge

The exemplary returns offered by the stock can be attributed to its strong financial performance in the last two years. As of FY21, the company saw its net profits rise to Rs. 14.88 crores from Rs. 8.20 crores in the previous financial year, an 81% increase. On a yearly basis, its sales zoomed to Rs. 261.5 crores from Rs. 138.68 crores, an increase of 88.56%.

One of the causes of its profits can be the strong demand for its leading products like Remdesivir. As many doctors prescribed this drug to provide relief to COVID-19 patients, its demand went up, though it was not a proven cure for the virus.

As an exporting company, Kwality Pharmaceuticals has supplied a considerable number of Remdesivir injections to the global market. To keep up with global demand for its popular products during the pandemic, the company has improved its infrastructure.

Moreover, it is currently involved in a Rs. 31 crores research and development project in Punjab to be completed within September 2022.
