Commenting on the company’s fourth quarter results, Co-chairman and CEO, G V Prasad said, “It’s been a challenging quarter for Dr. Reddy’s. While there has been a marginal decline in revenues, there has been a greater impact on profitability. This is mainly due to the provision, made as a matter of abundant precaution, to write down our outstanding receivables from Venezuela. We will continue to actively engage with the Venezuelan Government to provide affordable medicine to fulfill the need of people of the country, subject to repatriation of funds.
“Our Bio-similars business is gaining traction, as we have started to receive approvals and build partnerships for our products in the emerging markets. Our topmost priority continues to be the strengthening of our quality management processes across the organisation.”
* Adjusted for impact of devaluation and translation, on certain monetary assets and liabilities of our Venezuela subsidiary

**Venezuela adjustment
The Company has not received approvals from the Venezuelan government to repatriate any amount beyond USD 4 million already received during the year. The Company believes that in the interim, it is appropriate to use the DICOM rate (i.e. 272.5 VEF per USD) instead of official ‘preferential’ rate (i.e. 10 VEF per USD) for translating the monetary assets and liabilities of the Venezuelan subsidiary as at 31 March 2016. Accordingly, the resultant impact for Q4 FY 16 and Fiscal 2016 is Rs. 4,309 million and Rs. 5,085 million respectively. Similar charge on account of translation of net monetary assets was Rs. 843 million accrued in Q4 FY 15.
