Cipla Ltd.’s sales for the quarter were largely in line with our estimates. However, it delivered a strong beat on earnings owing to significant reduction in operating expense.

Covid-19-led disruption has enthused the company to re-imagine the business, to sustain cost saving and enhance resource productivity.
