with the highly dynamic market conditions. Proven expertise in product development and strong regulatory
knowledge has helped us in developing a robust product portfolio of EU-GMP dossiers comprising of different
TAs including CNS, CVS, and GI among others.

At Torrent Pharma, we have always believed that in a dynamic market, partnership and alliances are of
utmost importance. It is because of this philosophy that today we are able to forge very strong tie-ups and
partnerships with global leaders like Novo Nordisk, Astra Zeneca and others.

Marketing footprints of Torrent Pharma can be seen in almost all the EU markets, especially because of our
strong and strategic licensing tie-ups with leading national companies along top Pan-European companies like
Teva, Mylan, Sandoz, Stada, and Orion among others.

We have strong presence across the continent by the virtue of our wholly owned subsidiaries in Germany, UK
and Romania and through our offices in Lithuania etc. We have strengthened our presence in Germany with
acquisition of Heumann Pharma Generics, a Pfizer group company. Heumanns product portfolio provides a
good strategic market position to Torrent Pharma in one of the biggest pharmaceutical markets in the globe.
These subsidiaries have given a very varied exposure, which would be beneficial and will help us in further
strengthening our position across EU.
