In line with its policy, the Company has contributed towards education,
healthcare and social outreach programs and a majority of its CSR
spending in the previous financial year have been in these areas. The
Company has contributed to the GCS Medical College, Hospital and
Research Centre (GCSMCH) which has been set up in public-private
partnership by the Gujarat Cancer Society (GCS) and the Government
of Gujarat. GCS has been providing comprehensive cancer care and
treatment over the last five decades to the less privileged and
economically disadvantaged sections of the society.

During the year, the GCS Medical College, Hospital and Research
Centre successfully completed inspection conducted by the Medical
Council of India for the fifth consecutive year. The year marked an
important milestone as the first batch of medical students (MBBS)
passed out of the College in 2016. Of these, two students were
amongst the University toppers.

GCSMCH is committed to providing advanced medical care to the

needy and underprivilged citizens at the most affordable costs. During
the year, the number of patients provided care in the OPD touched
1000 per day. 90% of these patients were from economically
disadvantaged backgrounds. The GCS Hospital now has 11 operation
theatres fully operational, making it one of the most comprehensive
and self-sustaining healthcare centers of world-class standards.

Committed to developing the communities with health and

care:

Contributing to the communities that it forms a part of, the group

conducts rural healthcare camps at villages close to its facilities. Each
year, Zydans organise themselves into groups to co-ordinate with the
doctors, register the patients and update their medical history, assist
the doctors and dispense free medicines. Every year, the groups
specialty divisions run campaigns and create health alerts to educate
community members and employees on various disorders and the
steps to lead a healthier life.

Contributing to the foundations of learning and building better

communities through education:

As part of the activities in the field of education, the group has

supported the Zydus School for Excellence which was established as a
community initiative of The Ramanbhai Foundation. The school was the
brainchild of the Founder Chairman, Late Mr. Ramanbhai Patel, who
believed that a school is not just a place where young minds come to
learn, but its an institution where character is built and a
fountainhead, where children can constantly seek creative expressions
for their endeavours. The school now has two campuses with 2400
students and more than 150 educators. During the year, the students
of the school won several awards for academic, cocurricular as well as
excellence in sports.

Every year, our specialty divisions run campaigns and create health
alerts to educate community members and employees on various
disorders and the steps to lead a healthier life. During the year,
following were some of the initiatives undertaken

The cancer burden in developing countries is reaching pandemic

proportions. Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in India, with
about 2.5 million cancer patients, 1 million new cases added every
year and with a chance of the disease rising fivefold by 2025. In
keeping with this, the Zydus Oncosciences conducted a nation-wide
cancer awareness programme with the
support of radio partners. The oncologists addressed the audience on
the various cancers that are prevalent and how they can be cured, if
detected at the right time. A similar awareness campaign was also
conducted on the World No Tobacco Day. During the year, the
company in association with the N. K. Dhabhar Cancer Foundation
organised a programme called Art Space, which is an initiative that
gives hope to cancer survivors. The programme aimed at assisting
cancer patients in a number of ways and spread awareness that cancer
can be fought with courage and faith.
