Zaynich's Blockbuster Potential Lifts Wockhardt's Long-Term Outlook
Wockhardt secured USFDA approval for its novel antibiotic Zaynich, marking the first Indian‑developed new chemical entity to clear the regulator after a 12‑year effort. The drug targets multidrug‑resistant gram‑negative urinary‑tract infections and is expected to generate peak sales of $1.5 billion (≈₹15,000 crore) over the next four‑to‑six years. The approval sparked a 22% rally in the stock, pushing the share price to a 52‑week high of ₹2,420. Analysts see Zaynich as a catalyst that could compress Wockhardt’s price‑to‑sales multiple from around 10 to below 2, potentially turning the loss‑making firm into a profit generator.
