The revised outlook reflects growing confidence in the company’s diversified business model, expanding global opportunity pipeline and increasing operating scale across multiple business verticals.
According to the company, growth is expected to be supported by expanding opportunities in international B2B healthcare markets, driven by demand from institutional buyers, private sector customers and government procurement programmes.
This outlook is further supported by the commencement of its long-term supply agreement with the Partnership for Supply Chain Management (PFSCM), Netherlands, which the company said strengthens its position in global healthcare procurement.The company also highlighted growing opportunities in its lubricant portfolio, driven by increasing acceptance across institutional and consumer channels. It said its consumer business offers significant long-term potential as it continues to expand its personal care and wellness brand across modern trade, organised retail and pharmacy networks across Bharat.
Cupid said it sees strong order visibility across private markets, institutional business and international tenders spanning multiple geographies. It expects sustained growth in its male and female condom businesses, driven by expanded manufacturing capacity, new customer additions and a broader market reach built over the past 12 months.
The company also said it is making steady progress in its In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) business. While near-term growth expectations remain conservative, it expects the segment to become a meaningful contributor over the coming years, supported by regulatory approvals, new product launches and continued commercialisation efforts.
“Our strong start to FY27 reflects the transformation Cupid has undergone over the past few years. We have built a diversified business with multiple growth engines that are now beginning to scale together,” said Aditya Kumar Halwasiya, Chairman and Managing Director, Cupid.

He added that, backed by a strong order book, improving visibility across international markets and a robust pipeline of opportunities, the company has revised its medium-term revenue outlook upward. “At the same time, we believe our projections remain conservative, leaving room for additional upside as execution continues and new opportunities materialise,” he said.
