Ongoing discussions with innovators and partners remain highly encouraging, and we are confident that the CDMO segment will see exponential growth in the coming years. With improved visibility for Q4, I am pleased to revise our FY25 growth guidance upward from 30 per cent to 35 per cent,” said Naresh Patel, executive chairman & managing director, Ami Organics.
