Therefore, with adequate capacity in place and expected products approvals in pipeline from USFDA augurs well for the growth prospect of the company.

Technical Outlook
* Granules has had a prolonged consolidation phase after listing which lasted for nearly seven years. It hovered in a range during that phase and formed a reversal pattern as well.
* It finally witnessed a breakout from that range in the latter part of 2012 but the actual recovery started from mid-2013. It surged almost vertically from a single-digit mark to 145+ levels in the next two and a half years. Such a sharp move is usually followed by a consolidation phase and it also spent nearly 5 years in a range thereafter.
* It surged almost vertically from 140 to a new record high i.e. 437.51 levels, after the breakout from the consolidation range in February 2020. It has been trading with a corrective bias for the last 8 months and formed a strong base around 300 levels. The chart pattern combined with buoyancy in the pharma pack indicates resumption of the uptrend soon. We thus recommend creating longs at the current levels (CMP-340.60) and add more on dips around 330. Traders should maintain a closing stop loss at 308 and hold for the target of 385.
