input prices on its margins.
Risk of competition and price pressure
Though the company’s products enjoy a leading position in their respective categories,
the risk of entry of newer players in the market always exists. The company’s strength in the market place, coupled with its continuous thrust on improving quality of its products and offering newer products in the wellness segment, gives it an edge over the competition.

branded segment and expansion in field force clearly indicates their renewed interest in the Indian market.
Indian generics to benefit from the ongoing wave of patent expiries. Most of the leading players have significantly expanded their ANDA filings in line with the patent expiration cycle. Hence US generics market has become significant contributor to the revenues of most leading Indian companies.
Keeping the above in mind, ARL can play vital role by going for registration of off
patented products for exports and developing the outsourcing market. Key strategy will
be to focus on the new and latest molecules approved by the authorities and share with
top companies who can market these products, focus on additional dosages - injectible
and softjel apart from tablets capsules liquid and ointments. ARL is focusing chronic
diseases segments in ayurveda, diabetics, anti arthiritis and obesity segments. This will
help to identify the new formulations without side effect. Also these alternate therapies
can very well prevent the recurrence by addressing the root cause of the ailment so that
the disease is totally eradicated rather than symptomatic elimination.

expected that same trend will continue. Investment on R&D has increased. The Asian countries will emerge as fastest growing hub due to low cost and favourable regulatory environment.

Indian pharma has the potential to transform itself over the next decade. If spending in new drug discovery has increased to desired level, domestic firms could corner major share of global generics market in coming years. With highly talented manpower and
cost advantage India generic manufacturers are well positioned to seize opportunities arising out of patent. Indian pharma companies are already in the process to get registered for US FDA approval as the size of US drug market is around 45% of global
market. Companies who obtain US FDA approval for new drug application will save lot of money and time spent if go for off patented products on development of new drugs.
Threats & weakness
Greatest challenge and threat is too many players focused on similar bio equivalent products in the same market and thereby competition, Government Regulations and price controls, and increasing R&D costs result in providing low margins. There is also risk related to economic and political conditions in the world which in turn limits financial
benefit of growth. Another threat is risk related to exposure to the Rupee US$ exchange rate.
Internal control system and their adequacy
The company has adequate system of internal controls, based on well-defined individual roles and responsibilities with their limit of authority at various levels as well as effective feedback flow. The Board of Directors of your Company has constituted a qualified and
independent Audit Committee that reviews the adequacy of internal control at regular intervals.
The Company has appointed Cost Auditor as per the requirements of the provisions of Section 233(1B) of the Companies Act, 1956 and for the year 2012-13 the requirements have been complied with.
Human Resources
Human resource, as always, has been the major strength in the consistent development of the Organization. The HR department takes care to understand the work place phenomenon and relationships through comprehensive research. This helps the company
to explain the role of work force in the organizational success in minute detail.
ARL has a programme of periodical review of its key employees performance along with their output. This enables them to realize their strengths and further enhances them
with their awareness.
This is what enables ARL work together as an interdependent team for enhancing company’s productivity and profits.
ARL continues to lay strong emphasis on Sales Training for its field force both at the induction level and through refresher programs to enable front-line medical representatives and managers for availing their field efforts products.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Members of Arvind Remedies Limited Report on the Stand alone Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying standalone financial statements of Arvind Remedies Limited (“the Company”), which comprise the Balance Sheet as at June 30, 2015, and the Statement of Profit and Loss and Cash Flow Statement for the period then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. Management’s Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Statements The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the matters stated in section 134(5) of the Companies Act 2013 (“the Act”) with respect to the preparation of these standalone financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flows of the Company in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including the Accounting Standards referred specified under section 133 of the Act, read with Rule 7of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014. This responsibility also includes maintenance of adequate accounting records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We have taken into account the provisions of the Act, the accounting and auditing standards and matters which are required to be included in the audit report under the provisions of the Act and the Rules made there-under. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under section143(10) of the Act. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on whether the Company has in place an adequate internal financial control system over financial reporting and the operating effectiveness of such controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Company’s Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified audit opinion. Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion
