- Now I invite our CEO and Whole-Time Director, Mr. Sheetal Arora to speak to you. Over to you, Sheetal.

- Mr. Sheetal Arora – CEO & Whole-Time Director, Mankind Pharma Limited:

- Thank you very much, sir. Good afternoon, everyone. It is a pleasure to welcome all our stakeholders to our 35th Annual General Meeting. At Mankind Pharma, we are guided by a simple purpose to help more patients access quality medicine they can trust. That purpose shapes every decision we make, from the therapies we invest in to the way we build our organization. We put patients at the centre of everything we do as we build a faster, more innovative and more specialized organization for the future.

- I am pleased to share that financial year 2026 was a year of strong progress for Mankind

Pharma. We strengthened our business, expanded our specialty portfolio, increased our focus on innovation, invested in digital capabilities and expanded our international footprint. More importantly, we built a stronger foundation for long-term, sustainable growth. Healthcare is constantly evolving. And so are we. As the saying goes, change is the only constant. By continuing to evolve, we can better serve patients, healthcare professionals and all our stakeholders.

- Our ambition is not simply to become a bigger company. It is to become a better one by moving faster, strengthening our capabilities and creating greater value. None of this would be possible without our people. More than 27,000 colleagues across factories, R&D centres, offices and field teams bring the Mankind purpose to life every single day. Their hard work, integrity, humility and commitment remain our greatest strength and our biggest competitive advantage.

- Today, Mankind Pharma is the second largest pharmaceutical company by volume and the fourth largest by value in the Indian pharmaceutical market. Our focus has always been on sustainable, volume-led growth and while last year's restructuring temporarily affected volumes, our team have now settled into the new structure and volume growth has improved to 2.3% in financial year 26 compared to 0.5% in financial year 25.

3

- During the year, we continue to scale our brands from good to great, especially those with the potential to become Rs. 500 crore franchises, while also looking at whitespaces opportunities for the novel launches to create new levers of growth. We strengthen our presence in speciality therapies as well as scaling brands such as Glyzid and Nobeglar in anti-diabetes and Combihale and Symbicort in respiratory. Our chronic business has been one of Mankind Pharma's biggest success stories. From contributing just 1% of our business in 2004, the chronic portfolio has grown steadily to 39% excluding BSV in FY26, led by our strong performance in cardiac and anti-diabetic therapies. We remain confident of increasing this share to around 50% over the medium term and to that end, we acquired the Rivotril brand from Roche this year, expanding our presence in the CNS therapy segment.

- While we continue to strengthen our leadership in India, we are also expanding our presence in international markets with a growing portfolio of niche and specialty products. Our international business now contributes 14% of our total revenue. Building for the future requires sustained investment in the capabilities that will define the next phase of our growth. During the year, we strengthen our manufacturing, technology and formulation platforms. We have also stepped up our commitment to R&D with allocation rising to 2.8% in f FY26 and guidance of 2.8-3% for the year ahead. This investment is already yielding encouraging results. Insulin Aspart successfully completed phase 3 clinical trials and is now moving towards commercialization in India. Our recombinant biosimilars in the IVF space, the first of its kind in India, advance into phase 3 clinical trials.

While our dry-eye treatment, the first ever FDA-approved, water-free and preservative- free formulation is progressing towards phase 3. We continue to complement our in- house efforts with global partnerships. Our collaboration with Novartis, AstraZeneca and

Takeda in speciality and chronic therapies is complementing by an expanding China in- licensing pipeline. These milestones reflect our commitment to bringing meaningful innovation to patients while building the next phase of Mankind Pharma growth.

- Our largely in-house manufacturing models give us strong control over process and compliance. While our partnered facilities operate under rigorous audit, we are establishing a best-in-class drug-substance biological facility in Vadodara. I am delighted to share that this year, our Udaipur and Ambarath facilities received EU GMP certification, reflecting the high quality and compliance standard we uphold. Complementing our infrastructure, we are also investing in digital capabilities. The use of AI has meaningfully improved productivity across our operations, evolving over the last two years from the small pilot project into our enterprise-wide capabilities, supported by our partnership with Microsoft and OpenAI. We have also partnered with Denevo Sciences to launch an

AI-led drug discovery program, marking an important step in strengthening our innovation-driven and technology-enabled R&D capabilities.

- Looking ahead, our next phase of growth will be driven by four key priorities alongside continued investment in our R&D pipeline, quality and compliance, and AI-led productivity.

• improving chronic share with the aim of taking it to around 50% over the medium term.

• drive incremental share in the fast-growing hospital channel where we remain under-indexed versus the IPM.

• create new divisions using non-focused brands from within existing divisions, enabling better detailing and driving incremental growth.

• improve Mankind's rank in the 10 identified focus states.

- Beyond business growth, we are deeply committed to creating a positive impact on society. Through our CSR initiative, we continue to expand access to healthcare, strengthen preventing care, and support underprivileged communities across the country.

- During the year, we expanded programs focused on early disease screening and community awareness, helping more people access timely healthcare. Beyond healthcare, we strengthened public health infrastructure through initiatives in water conservation, sanitation, and electric systems. In partnership with our implementation partners, we also conducted health camps, cervical cancer screening, and vaccination programs.

- As I conclude, I would like to thank our employees, healthcare professionals, partners, and shareholders for their continued support. Above all, I would like to thank the millions of patients who place their trust in Mankind Pharma every day. Their trust inspires us to keep innovating, keep improving, and keep working to make quality healthcare accessible to more patients. Thank you for your continued confidence in Mankind Pharma. Now, I invite our Global Chief Financial Officer, Ashutosh Ji, to present the financial overview for the financial year 2026. Over to you, Ashutosh Ji. Thank you so much.

- Mr. Ashutosh Dhawan – Global Chief Financial Officer, Mankind Pharma Limited:

- Thanks, Sheetal ji. A very good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. It's my privilege to once again address the Annual General Meeting attended by our esteemed shareholders. On behalf of the entire management team, I would like to thank you for your continued trust and support as we complete another year of delivering quality healthcare with a sharp focus on affordability, accessibility, and innovation.

- Financial year 2026 has been a year of disciplined execution and strengthening the foundation of our next phase of growth. As we completed the first full year following the acquisition of Bharat Serums and Vaccines, we remained focused on consolidating the business with increased investments in innovation and strengthening the balance sheet position by reducing the debt while continuing to build the capabilities for the future.

- Let me give some financial highlights for the financial year 2026. The Company reported its highest ever consolidated revenue of Rs. 14,278 crores registering a healthy 17% year- on-year growth. Our adjusted EBITDA stood at Rs. 3,629 crores, growing 15% year-on- year basis with adjusted EBITDA margin of 25.4%, remaining well within our guided range of 25% to 26%. Our gross margins for the year improved marginally by 20 basis points to

71.6%, primarily supported by a favorable business mix as the contribution from the chronic therapies continued to increase during the year. Our adjusted EBITDA margin decreased by 50 basis points on year-on-year basis, which is primarily attributable to the higher R&D spend, which increased from 2.2% in FY25 to 2.8% in FY26. Our profit after tax stood at Rs. 1,938 crores during the year, down by 3.4% year-on-year basis, impacted by higher depreciation, amortization and finance costs associated with the BSV acquisition. The cash flow from operations remained robust, resulting in an improved CFO to EBITDA ratio of 89% as compared to 80% in the previous year. This reflects our disciplined working capital management, healthy cash conversion and continued focus on the operational efficiency. The Company incurred a capital expenditure of Rs. 737 crores during financial year 26 towards manufacturing expansion, technology upgradation and strengthening our future capabilities, including the development of our upcoming biotechnology manufacturing facility at Vadodara.

- The innovation continues to remain one of our key strategic priorities. Accordingly, our

R&D investments have increased to 2.8% of sales in line with our long-term guidance. As we continue to invest in specialty products, biologics and complex formulations that will drive sustainable growth over the coming years.

- Diluted earnings per share for FY26 stood at Rs. 46.3, while cash EPS improved to 68.1, reflecting the strong cash generating capability of our business. Our balance sheet continued to strengthen during the year. We reduced acquisition-related borrowings through strong internal cash generation, resulting in our net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio improving to 1.1x as at 31 March 2026. Subsequent to the year-end, the net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio has further reduced to 0.9x due to repayment of NCD amounting to Rs. 1,250 crores in Q1 FY27.

- Looking ahead, we remain focused on driving sustainable and profitable growth through disciplined execution, continued investments in innovation, expansion of our speciality portfolio and prudent capital allocation. With our diversified business model spanning base pharma, speciality chronic, consumer healthcare and super speciality through BSV, we are well positioned to create long-term value for all our stakeholders. Our confidence is further strengthened by our market leadership in prescriptions, expanding R&D capabilities, strong cash generation, healthy balance sheet and dedication of our talented workforce.

- With this, I once again thank all our shareholders for their continued confidence and support. I now request Mr. Hitesh Jain, the Company Secretary and Compliance Officer,

6 to brief the members on the resolutions set out in the AGM notice. Thank you so very much. Over to you, Hitesh.

- First of all, I would like to congratulate the management of the Company for the performance in its 35th AGM meeting. I have two questions.

11

• Given the escalating U.S.-Iran conflict and disruption to the Strait of Hormuz and Red

Sea shipping routes, how exposed is Mankind Pharma to this instability? What is the impact on its margin?

- My next question is:

• With the U.S. tariff and trade policy still evolving through 2026, how exposed is

Mankind's export business to the potential tariff action? What is the mitigation in this place?

- Thank you, sir.

- Mr. Praveen Singh - Shareholder:

- Okay. Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to speak today. I would also like to highlight the efforts of the management that they have taken during the year. In the capacity of speaker shareholder today, I have two questions to raise. The first is that:

• Why the domestic portfolio of the Company has underperformed and has it recovered? When we as a shareholder could expect its outperformance?

- My second question is:

• What is the chronic versus acute strategy and target of the Company?

- I am expecting a great response from the leaders on the dais. Thank you so much.

- Moderator:

- Thank you so much everyone for your questions. The management will provide answers to your questions shortly. Meanwhile, let's take a look at some of the audio visuals of our company.

- Audio-Visual playing

- Moderator:

- I now request the management to provide the answers to the queries raised by our shareholders. Over to you Ashutosh sir. Thank you.

- Mr. Ashutosh Dhawan – Global Chief Financial Officer, Mankind Pharma Limited:

- Thank you. We have received a large number of diverse questions through emails as well as speaker shareholders. We appreciate the quality of the questions being asked. Some of these questions are overlapping or repetitive in nature. We have consolidated and categorized these questions in order to provide a comprehensive view. The questions related to domestic business, geopolitical and operational strategy will be taken up by our

Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Sheetal Arora. I will address the queries related to strategic, business, financial, cyber security and any other matter. With this, I would like to now invite Mr. Sheetal Arora to address the questions pertaining to Company’s domestic business, geopolitical and operational strategy. Over to you Sheetal ji. Thank you.

- Mr. Sheetal Arora – CEO & Whole-Time Director, Mankind Pharma Limited:

- Thank you Ashutosh ji.

- The first question was related to why did our domestic portfolio underperform and has it recovered and also when do we expect outperformance. So, answer to this question is our domestic revenue excluding consumer business grew 14.9% year on year in Financial

Year’26. We have realigned our field force to strengthen the acute portfolio which is over

60% of our domestic business and that's paying off. The team has stabilized and we are seeing steady improvement in our core acute therapies. Gastrointestinal, Vitamins and

Gynecology are improving month on month. Volume growth also picked up from 0.5% in

Financial Year’25 to 2.3% in Financial Year’26. Our chronic business is doing well too. We outperformed the market by 1.1 times in cardiac and 2.1 times in anti-diabetic excluding

GLP-1 in Financial Year’26. Chronic share excluding BSV rose 190 bps to 39% and we want to take that to 50% over the medium term. Overall, we are confident about double digit growth and beating the market.

13

- The next question was about recent in-licensing and merger and acquisition deals that were completed. We keep expanding our portfolio through partnership and in-licensing deals with global names like Novartis, AstraZeneca and Takeda. This strengthens our position in specialty and chronic therapies. This past year we also acquired Rivotril from

Roche, a textbook brand of Clonazepam used for epilepsy and other neurological and psychiatric conditions.

- Another question came was that related to chronic vs acute strategy and the target of it.

So, for that I can reply that, since Covid the Indian pharma market has shifted towards lifestyle diseases and chronic therapies are growing faster as a result. So, we have steadily built up our chronic presence. Cardiac grew 16% and anti-diabetes grew 12.7% taking our chronic share from 28% in FY18 to 39% in FY26. Our chronic portfolio has consistently outperformed the IPM, expanding our chronic share by 110 bps in FY24, 140 bps in FY25 and 190 bps in FY26. Every year there is an improvement in the bps and we remain confident of sustaining this momentum as we continue to deepen our chronic portfolio and target to reach ~50% over the medium term. Further, we have undertaken multiple strategic initiatives for both our acute and chronic portfolio including drive incremental share in fast-growing hospital channels, creating new divisions with non-focused brands in existing divisions for better detailing to drive growth and improve Mankind rank in identified 10 focused states. We believe these initiatives will continue to drive sustainable growth and support long-term value creation for all our stakeholders.

- Another question which came was on our international business strategy. What we are doing on our international strategies? How we are expanding? So, to answer that question is that our strategic focus remains firmly on domestic market which contributes over 85% of our revenues. Internationally, we are being selective, going after niche, complex products with limited competition rather than expanding broadly. The acquisition of BSV further enhances this approach by providing a differentiated branded super-speciality portfolio that we are progressively scaling across the rest of the world market.

- So, let me also answer another question which stated that given the escalating US-Iran conflict and disruption to the Strait of Hormuz and Red Sea shipping routes, how exposed is Mankind Pharma to this instability and what is the impact on margins? Yes, we do expect some pressure on cost due to higher freight charges and input cost caused by current disruptions, which may affect our gross margin. However, our gross margin has consistently stayed above 70% and we expect it to remain in the range of 71% plus, subject to further development on micro-economic environment. Our diversified sourcing strategy and operational efficiencies give us enough flexibility to manage these challenges without significantly affecting our overall profitability.

- So, these are the questions which I have answered. Now I would like to request our Global

CFO Ashutosh ji to provide response to strategic business, finance related questions and update on cyber security related queries. Over to you Ashutosh ji.

14

- Mr. Ashutosh Dhawan – Global Chief Financial Officer, Mankind Pharma Limited:

- Thanks, Sheetal ji.

- The first question is regarding the performance of consumer healthcare business in

Financial Year 2026. The revenue from the consumer healthcare business has increased to Rs. 879 crores which is up 9% year on year basis with adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.7%.

We have always adopted a disciplined and a selective approach to building our consumer healthcare business. Over the years we have curated portfolio that complements our core pharmaceutical business and have built a strong brand equity which has resulted in 4 of our key brands maintaining number one position in their respective categories. While we see significant growth opportunities across emerging channels such as modern trade and e-commerce where our portfolio is very well positioned, we remain focused on profitable growth and disciplined margin management. Consequently, our modern trade and e- commerce contribution has increased to 13% in FY26 from 9% in FY25 which is driven by

57% year on year growth while maintaining our profitability.
