Dr. Reddy's Laboratories / Equity Bottom-Up

Shares of Indian pharma industry have been flourishing lately, and leading the pack among the large caps is undoubtedly <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/dr-reddy-s-laboratories-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:16406:1" rel="noopener">Dr. Reddy's Laboratories (DRRD IN)</a>, a script that has risen as much as 21% the last week to close at an all time high on Friday.This impressive rally started few days ago when the company had signed an agreement with the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) to conduct a clinical trial and distribution of the revolutionary Gam-COVID-Vac (also known as Sputnik V) in India. While this is a truly remarkable achievement for the company, one must also consider the fact that Phase 3 trials of the vaccine is still not completed, and hence there is still some amount of uncertainty involved.
