Our “Legacy of Care” expresses who we are at Cadila Pharma. It reflects our enduring philosophy and unwavering commitment to improving lives through the medicines we develop, the way we conduct our business, the communities we engage with, and the sustainable future we strive to build.
Headquartered in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, Cadila Pharmaceuticals Limited ranks among India’s largest privately held pharmaceutical companies. Since our founding in 1952 by Indravadan A. Modi, the company has remained a privately owned entity under the leadership of the Modi family. We operate as a multinational enterprise, dedicated to developing and manufacturing affordable generic and innovative medicines for patients across the globe.
We have worked with a clear and purposeful focus to make quality healthcare affordable and accessible for a newly independent India that depended heavily on imported medicines. Our founder, Late Shri Indravadan A. Modi, established the company with the intention of serving a nation in need. Over the decades, we have expanded this vision into a broader commitment to people, the planet, and progress.
