ICICI Direct Report

Continuity of domestic formulations growth with increasing share of non Covid-19 portfolio is likely to drive Q2 FY22 sales even as expected weakness in the U.S. generics space could act as a spoiler for overall momentum.

Our healthcare universe (12 coverage companies) is expected to post YoY growth of ~5.5% to ~Rs 46123 crore.

Domestic formulations (select pack) are expected to grow ~14% to Rs 11219 crore due to continuous traction from acute segment (momentum began from Q1) besides normalised trend in the chronic segment.

We expect a significant shift in growth momentum from Covid to non-Covid portfolio on the back of receding active cases and growing vaccination drive across the country.
