In a letter to the board, Sudhir Mehta, Chairman Emeritus, announced his decision to step down effective April 1, 2024. He cited his desire to dedicate more time to his family and social causes as the reason for his departure. His brother, Samir Mehta, is the chairman of the company.

On a sequential basis, the company exhibited a 2.71 per cent increase in revenue along with PAT which rose 14.77 per cent.


Revenue for the Indian business reached Rs 1,415 crores, showing growth of 12 per cent Y-o-Y. In the United States, business revenues stood at Rs 274 crores, declining by 6 per cent Y-o-Y. Constant currency revenues at $33 million were down by 7 per cent. The impact on growth was primarily attributed to the absence of new product launches during the period. Torrent is scheduled to launch new products in Q1 of fiscal 2024-25. In Brazil, business revenues increased by 26 per cent, while Germany revenues reached Rs 270 crores, up by 12 per cent Y-o-Y.
