India's largest drugmaker, Sun Pharma, has announced the acquisition of US-based Organon in a landmark $11.75 billion all-cash deal, the biggest overseas purchase by an Indian company since Tata-Corus in 2007. The move effectively doubles Sun Pharma's size, vaulting it into the top 25 global pharmaceutical companies with combined revenues of $12.4 billion. Host Anirban Chowdhury talks to ET's pharma expert Vikas Dandekar and associate editor Arijit Barman about why this deal gives Sun Pharma an instant foothold in biosimilars, a dominant position in global women's health, and a portfolio of established brands across 150 countries. With $2.5 billion in combined pre-financing free cash flows, the company looks well-positioned to tackle Organon's inherited debt burden.
