New Delhi: FMCG major Paras Pharmaceuticals today launched a variant of its pain-killer brand ‘Moov-Neck & Shoulder´, keeping in view its plan to achieve annual 25% growth.

“Moov has reported total sales of around Rs80 crore per annum and with the launch of the new variant, we are expecting Rs100 crore sales from the brand alone in the current fiscal," Paras Pharmaceutical managing director and chief executive officer S Raghunandan told reporters here.

The company also launched an ayurvedic cough syrup under its another popular brand ‘D’Cold´.

“The D’Cold brand has sales of around Rs20 crore per annum and with the launch of the D’Cold Natural cough syrup, the company is entering into a new segment," Raghunandan said.

Sales from the brand are expected to grow by 50% to Rs30 crore per annum, he added.
