"RLL has announced the demerger of its R&D relating to Drug Delivery Research (DDR) for enhancing shareholder value. The company currently has eight molecules in different stages of development. This would result in reduction of R&D cost by over Rs 1.0 billion for RLL and hence will improve profitability."

The stock currently trades at 21.6x, 13.9x and 10.4x based on CY08E, CY09E and CY10E earnings. We rate RLL an Outperformer with a price target of Rs 566, a 27% upside over CMP.
