Last week, the USFDA had classified a plant operated by its subsidiary APL Healthcare in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh as "Voluntary Action Indicated" (VAI), on identifying deficiencies during its inspection that, while noteworthy, do not warrant official regulatory action.

The inspection was conducted at Unit IV of APL Healthcare Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of the company, situated at Menakuru Village, under the Naidupeta Mandal, in Tirupati District of Andhra Pradesh.

The company had reported an 85 percent year-on-year rise in consolidated net profit to Rs 757 crore for the July-September quarter of the current financial year.
