Dr. Reddy’s shares drop up to 3% after semaglutide batch issue delays commercial supply
Dr. Reddy's disclosed certain semaglutide batches were out of specification due to an API issue, prompting a temporary commercial supply delay for its recently launched Canadian product (a projected $120m revenue opportunity). While the company stated patient safety and regulatory filings are unaffected, the update increases execution risk around a key growth driver and triggered a notable single-day share decline, reinforcing cautious broker positioning.
