India Ratings has upgraded Alivus Life Sciences’s long-term bank loan facilities rating to ‘IND AA’ from ‘IND AA-‘, with a Stable Outlook. The short-term rating is affirmed at ‘IND A1+’. This upgrade reflects Alivus’s healthy revenue visibility, strong EBITDA margins, and a net cash position in FY25.

Rating Upgrade Rationale

Alivus Life Sciences (ALS) has received an upgrade in its long-term rating to ‘IND AA’ with a Stable Outlook, reflecting the company’s strong financial performance and market position. The upgrade is driven by healthy revenue visibility and strong EBITDA margins in FY25. The company’s short-term rating has been affirmed at ‘IND A1+’.

Key Financial Highlights

The company has demonstrated high capacity utilization (above 95%) despite an 86% increase in capacity between FY22-FY25. Revenue for FY25 reached INR23,869 million.

As of FY25, it has a portfolio of 165 molecules and a pipeline of 49 new products.

Future Outlook
