Strides Pharma Science Limited, a leading pharmaceutical company, announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Strides Alathur Private Limited, received two observations during a routine current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) inspection conducted by the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA). The inspection took place at the company's formulations facility in Alathur, Chennai, from April 1 to April 5, 2024.

Companies are required to address these observations and provide a detailed response to the regulatory agency. The agency then takes a final decision before closing the matter.

Strides Pharma Science stated that the company would comprehensively respond to the observations within the stipulated time and will keep investors updated.
