    The company and US Department of Justice agreed to the settlement of the action without any adjudication of any issue of fact or law.

    Recently, the company has received Establishment Inspection Report (EIR) from the USFDA for its Hyderabad facility.

    At 09:17 hrs Dr Reddy’s Laboratories was quoting at Rs 2,413.75, up Rs 19.25, or 0.80 percent on the BSE.
