the relevant quote from Vimal Kumar, Shasum managing director, is
"A: I cannot give details. But yes, one of the products is in Phase III, the regulatory approvals are expected to be in place by April-May and the launch to set to happen somewhere in June-July next year. Commercial supplies have already started and this year, we are preparing for the launch. "
That clip is from 2011 I checked the stock price. I think this is commercial scale production, from this article.

They have been making it some where. Perhaps that supplier until this one ramps up.
"Shasun Chem to launch Vertex Hepatitis C' Drug in June-July 2012"
Hell, I must be reading the article wrong.....
possibly 'hcvnewdrugs' may just have gotten the "next year" reference off. Looks like tela will be manufactured in India and will be ramping up for distribution in June/July, as expected. Thanks for posting - this kind of rubber-meets-the-road planning is more reassuring than stock analyst speculation.
Shasun Chemicals is projecting July of 2012 - we've been told expected release is mid 2011?
Apparently a company in India named Shasun Chemicals. And according to the article it may not be available until July. But an almost firm date is good news isn't it?
Supposedly Telaprevir is supposed to be released in June 2011? Who will be manufacturing it?
