In 2007 Bliss Pharma acquired GVS pharma and an open offer had been placed.
There is a mention of this in Moneylife article that TCSer posted for cos. cheating shareholders. But the tax numbers were less only for 2008 which can happen - for 2007 and 2009 numbers are much higher. And drug formulations are high unlike mentioned in this article - it needs to be compared with players like Plethico Pharma/ Venus Remedies and not with Dr Reddy’s, Ranbaxy and Cipla as the article mentions.
IDFC picked a stake in this in April. Haven't seen many recommendations or information on this.
The website seems new and their 2009 AR does not have much information or guidance.
Does anyone have more insights, the numbers look good?
There have questions in individual posts in other sections but no discussion around this.
