Sanofi India has gained 4%, extending its 11% rally in the previous session, as the company would benefit the most after the government withdrew National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority's power that permitted it to fix prices of non-essential drugs.

Ms. Sarabjit Kour Nangra, VP Research - Pharma, Angel Broking says Sanofi India would have the biggest positive impact with around Rs 139 crore gains in sales.

It may be recalled that the NPPA had capped prices of 108 cardiac and diabetes drugs on July 10, 2014.
