The reincarnation
Subject, the recreated world-class
pharma company, is growing at a blistering
pace
Business India, 17 June 2007
When the foundation
stone of a new pharma factory was laid in April 2003 in a small village Chacharwadi,
Vasna, near Ahmedabad, it was the beginning of a new life for founder-promoter
Sushil Handa (54). His earlier empire comprising Core Group of companies had
submerged under a sea of debt. The assets, taken over by the Asset
Reconstruction Company of India Limited (ARCIL), were in the process of finding
a buyer. For Handa, a first generation entrepreneur, this was the second
innings.
Subject, the new
company, had begun its life as a trading company in 1999, importing medicines
and also getting some manufactured by Indian companies. The capital for the new
enterprise came from internal accruals from the trading ventures, a loan of $7
million provided by the Exim Bank and loans from family members and friends.
This was augmented by small contributions from a loyal team of 20 people, who
had stood by him through thick and thin.
Even as the
ceremonies were under way, a vehicle carrying a small load of around 400
assorted bricks arrived on the site, bearing vermillion marks indicating that
sacred rites were performed on them. The distributors and stockists were
saying: 'They are with you in the new endeavour'. "With so many blessings of relatives, friends and distributors
coming their way, I knew they were bound to succeed the second time
around," says Handa, recounting this experience.
Eight years since inception, Subject has today become a Rs 4000.000
millions company, with a staff strength of 3,100 people, carving
out a niche in sterile injectibiles, lifesaving medicines and hospital
products. At an expected 40 per cent year-on-year growth, the company is
targeting a turnover of Rs 7000.000 millions for 2007 and Rs l0000.000 millions
in a couple of years, with exports contributing to 50 per cent of the turnover.
Claris's four
manufacturing facilities on the outskirts of Ahmedabad have built a unique mix
of products and delivery systems. Two events early this year have proved to be
turning points in the course of Sushil Handa's own career.
·
In March, the Ahmedabad
high court accorded its seal of approval to the scheme put forth by Claris and
ARCIL, by which the Nirma Group of Ahmedabad would take over the entire IV
manufacturing assets (the largest IV fluid manufacturing plant at a single
location, along with the medical devices and the disposables manufacturing
plant) spread over 600 acres of land. In turn, it agreed to take over the
liabilities, scaled down by ACRTL.
