Cipla is gearing up for a robust FY2026 with plans to launch Gadvair, three peptide-based therapies including liraglutide, and four major respiratory assets. The strategy aims to strengthen its U.S. portfolio and capitalize on growth opportunities in GLP-1 and complex generics.
Cipla has outlined an ambitious product pipeline for calendar year 2026, signaling strong momentum in its U.S. and global operations. According to Managing Director & Global CEO Umang Vohra, the company expects to launch Gadvair—a generic version of Advair—alongside three peptide assets, including liraglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist used in diabetes and obesity treatment. These launches are part of Cipla’s broader strategy to tap into the growing demand for GLP-1 therapies and complex generics.
In addition, Cipla plans to roll out four major respiratory products, reinforcing its leadership in pulmonary care. The company is also targeting EBITDA margins of 23.5–24.5% for FY2026, supported by strong performance in North America and sustained growth in India. Despite headwinds from the loss of exclusivity on generic Revlimid, Cipla remains confident in outperforming the industry’s 8–10% growth rate.
