SUBJECT: EXTRANCHECK: POST-SHIPMENT VERIFICATION: NICHOLAS PIRAMAL 
INDIA LTD., HYDERABAD, License No. D350145 
 
REF: USDOC 03131 
 
¶1. Unauthorized disclosure of the information provided below is 
prohibited by Section 12(c) of the Export Administration Act. 
 
¶2. Export Control Officer (ECO) Paul Cushman, Former ECO Michael 
Rufe and BIS FSN Prem Narayan conducted a Post-shipment Verification 
(PSV) at Nicholas Piramal India Ltd. (Nicholas), on April 19, 2007. 
 
 
¶3. BIS requested a PSV at Nicholas, a private sector company, 
located at: 5-9-30, Road No. 4, Bashheerbagh, Hyderabad 500063, Tel: 
91-40-2322-6719, Fax: 91-40-2326-2242, email: 
vicekmadan@nicholaspiramal.co.in, Website: www.nicholaspiramal.com. 
Nicholas was listed as the Ultimate Consignee; Lutz-Pumpen GmbH and 
Co., Wertheim, Germany as the Foreign Purchaser; and Shanbhag and 
Asociates (Shanbhag), Mumbai as the Intermediate Consignee for 1 
Model 5701-080 one-inch Air operated double diaphragm pump 
controlled under ECCN 2B350. The license applicant was Lutz-Jesco 
(Lutz-Jesco) America Corp., Rochester, NY. 
 
¶4. BIS Team met with Vivek Madan (Madan), Vice 
President-Manufacturing at Nicholas Office in Hyderabad.  The 
Nicholas factory is located approximately 80 kilometers north of 
Hyderabad in the Medak District. 
 
¶5. Madan was not aware of the BIS regulations.  This was the first 
USG or BIS official visit to Nicholas.  Madan stated that due to 
Shanbhag's failure for timely delivery of the pump, they cancelled 
the order and purchased a locally-made pump.  In response to BIS 
initial PSV request, Nicholas agreed to host the BIS Team for the 
PSV but after checking the inventory they found that they never 
purchased the pump.  Harish Verma (Verma) of Nichloas then 
approached Shanbhag through email informing them about the BIS 
Team's visit to conduct a PSV on April 19, 2007.  In turn Sunil 
Shanbhag of Shanbhag sent an email response to Verma which is 
reproduced below: 
 
¶6. Begin quote: Please note we have checked our records in this 
regard.  You had placed an order on us in Indian rupees in 
August/September 2005 for one 1/2-inch KNT/TF Lutz AODD pump.  This 
product comes under export license control and accordingly you had 
submitted end-use certificate plus other relevant documents for the 
license application.  We had in turn forwarded the same to our 
principals in USA who had sent in the application for license.  This 
clearance was received from the U.S.  Authority in March 2006 and 
the pump was subsequently dispatched to us by our principals. 
Regrettably the delay was nearly five-six months after your order 
placement and you then expressed your inability to take the pump for 
your use due to the long delay to supply.  Hence this pump remains 
in our stock since then.  In case you still have such requirement 
and application you could consider lifting this pump for your plant. 
Regards. For Shanbhag & Associates, Sunil Shanbhag. End quote. 
 
¶7. BIS Team inquired Madan whether currently or in the near future 
they would require such a pump.  Madan declined and stated that he 
does not foresee a need for such a pump in the near future. 
 
¶8. Per their website, established in 1988, Nicholas is India's 
second largest pharmaceutical and healthcare company.  Nicholas is 
part of Piramal Enterprises which is one of India's largest 
diversified business houses. Nicholas manufactures medicines for the 
cardio-vascular segment, and has a strong presence in the 
antibiotics and respiratory segments, pain management, 
neuro-psychiatry and anti-diabetics segments.  The Nicholas Medak 
District plant is USFDA approved and accredited by MCA of U.K., TGA 
of Australia and the European and Canadian Drug Authorities.  The 
product range includes phensedyl, ismo, supradyn, gardenal, 
stemetil, haemaccel, rejoint, paraxin, flagyl and omnatax. It has 
five manufacturing locations and employs approximately 7,000 
personnel. 
 
¶9. Recommendation: The PSV remains inconclusive since Nicholas 
Piramal India Ltd. did not purchase the Lutz-Jesco pump.
