    Elder Pharmaceuticals plans to clear the backlog of other payments very soon. Elder is also in talks to raise fresh funds through a combination of debt or debt cum equity in order to improve its cash flow and performance. The company's cash flow cycle was affected for a larger part of FY 2014-15 resulting in payments getting delayed to its various creditors and government bodies. In view of the growth in sales of its pharma & OTC products recently, the company is anticipating regular cash infusion which will contribute to its working capital, regular expenses and debt retirement needs.

    Elder Pharmaceuticals ( http://www.elderindia.com ) is a major player in the Anti-infectives, Multi Vitamins, Cardiology and Skin care segments and is also present in the Over The Counter segment (OTC) through its products like AM/PM, Solo, Respite, Rhyme covering sectors like Oral Mouthwash, Skin Care, Nasal Decongestion, Muscle relaxants and Color Cosmetics. Elder has a prominent position in the pharma space in India and abroad with its products commanding good demand from hospitals, doctors etc. A few products like Eldervit (a nutraceutical), anti-infectives like Cefixime based Formic and Elfi, & Skin O2 (dermatology) have significant market share and are growing at over 14% annually. The company has 6 state-of-the-art production facilities across India backed by a team of over 2 dozen scientists.

    Going forward, the company is embarking on a major price revamp supported by an aggressive national expansion campaign in order to garner a larger share in the domestic market. Elder's International operations are registering steady growth and more than 40% of Elder's revenue is likely to come from its global business. As a part of Elder's deal with Torrent Pharmaceuticals in 2013 - which involved sale of over 30 brands and transfer of Elder's domestic employees to Torrent - Elder shall utilize its six plants for contract manufacture of the formulations business sold to Torrent for 3 years which will fetch Elder a continous revenue stream of Rs 70 - 75 crore every year.

    Elder group is targeting a turnover of about Rs 1000 cr from its domestic and international operations by FY 2017.
