Note: FY23 financials are strictly not comparable to FY22 respectively

The Hon’ble NCLT, on 12th Aug’22, approved the composite scheme of arrangement for transfer by way of demerger of the Pharma business from Piramal Enterprises Ltd (PEL) into Piramal Pharma Ltd. and amalgamation of PPL’s wholly owned subsidiaries Hemmo Pharmaceuticals Pvt Ltd (HPPL) and Convergence Chemical Pvt Ltd (CCPL) into itself with an appointed date of 1st Apr’22.

Accordingly, the financial statements of PPL have been prepared giving effect to the scheme from 1st Apr’2022.

Financial statements of CCPL and HPPL, wholly owned subsidiaries of PPL have been combined as if the amalgamation had occurred on 1st April, 2021 or from the date on which the Company acquired control over these subsidiaries, whichever is later.

Prior to the demerger, PPL had entered into an arrangement with PEL for continued onward sale by PEL, of products under Government tenders that were obtained in the name of PEL, till obligations under these tenders were fully met. The agreement also included sale of PPL’s Consumer products (OTC) through PEL’s CFA (Carrying and Forwarding Agent) network till all requisite licenses, registrations, permits were fully transferred in the name of PPL.

In accordance with the scheme the demerger of pharma undertaking has been considered as non-common control transaction and accounted as business combination as per Ind-AS 103 in the financial statements of PPL w.e.f 1st Apr’22. Accordingly, the financial results for FY23 are not comparable with corresponding previous period.  Like-to-Like financials are as shown in the table below.

Also, all the closing inventory as on 31st Mar’22 at PEL, in respect of such transactions included the margin element charged by PPL to PEL on arm’s length basis. Since the demerger is effective 1st Apr’22, the opening inventory transferred to PPL at fair value (provisional) as per IND-AS included the margin element and the same has been charged to the P&L in Q1FY23 of PPL financial statements, on sale of such products in PPL. 

The one-time, non-recurring impact on EBITDA of this inventory margin in Q1FY23 financial statements is INR 68Cr.
