Dear sir/madam,
In 1945,
Mr. Govind Ramnath Kare, who was in business of wholesale and retail trade
of pharmaceuticals, started a firm called Indo Continental Trading
Company.
However in this early
period company suffered a severe setback. During independence movement, the
border between India and Goa was sealed and Mr. Kare was unable to travel to
Mumbai and manage the company.
Soon after Goa's independence Mr. Suresh G Kare son of Mr. G.R. Kare took
over as the managing director of the unit in 1963. The business grew from
turnover of Rs. 0.25/=MN. to Rs.1776/=MN. and the employee strength from 20
to 1750.
The company has 5
plants located in Goa, Andheri, Tarapur and Waluj.

spread geographical reach. Full fledged R&D centerer. Consistent
growth in last 57 years with CAGR of 8.56%. Ranked 24th in prescription

work. 13.90% of domestic sales are under DPCO's price control

countries with low cost manufacturing base.
