Aurobindo Pharma Limited Proposes Merger of Subsidiaries to Simplify Group Structure
Aurobindo Pharma Limited has proposed a Scheme of Amalgamation involving three of its wholly owned subsidiaries with Eugia Pharma Specialities Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of the company. The proposal aims to consolidate substantially similar businesses into a single legal entity to streamline the group structure and achieve operational efficiencies.The amalgamation involves Eugia Steriles Private Limited and Eugia SEZ Private Limited (the transferor companies) merging into Eugia Pharma Specialities Limited (the transferee company).

| Eugia SEZ Private Limited | Transferor Company 2 | February 20, 2021 |
