2007 PROXY STATEMENT

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

1.	Q:	What is a proxy?
	A:	A proxy is a document, also referred to as a proxy card (which is enclosed), by which you authorize someone else to vote for you in the way that you want to vote. Caraco’s Board of Directors is soliciting this proxy. You may also abstain from voting.
2.	Q:	What is a proxy statement?
	A:	A proxy statement is the document the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) requires to explain the matters on which you are asked to vote on the proxy card. Caraco’s proxy statement, together with its enclosed proxy card, was first mailed to shareholders on or about July 30, 2007.
3.	Q:	Who can vote?
	A:	Only holders of Caraco’s common stock at the close of business on July 24, 2007, the Record Date, can vote at the Annual Meeting. Each shareholder of record has one vote for each share of common stock on each matter presented for a vote at the Meeting.
4.	Q:	How do I vote if my stock is held in “street name?”
	A:	If your Caraco common stock is held in a brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of stock held in “street name.” As a beneficial owner, you do not have the right to vote your stock. Only the “record holder” of the stock has such rights. If you wish to vote your stock, you should either (i) obtain a legal proxy from the record holder of the stock appointing you as its legal proxy or (ii) instruct the record holder how you would like the record holder to vote the stock you own.
5.	Q:	What will I vote on at the Meeting?
	A:	At the Annual Meeting, shareholders will vote to:
		1.	Elect three directors for three-year terms expiring in 2010 and upon the election and qualification of their successors.
		2.	Transact any other business that is properly submitted before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment(s) of the Meeting.
6.	Q:	Who can attend the Annual Meeting?
	A:	You are entitled to attend the Annual Meeting only if you were a Caraco shareholder as of the Record Date or you hold a valid proxy for the annual meeting. You should be prepared to present valid government-issued photo identification for admittance. In addition, if you are a shareholder of record, your name will be verified against the list of shareholders of record on the Record Date prior to your being admitted to the Annual Meeting. If you are not a shareholder of record but hold shares through a broker or nominee (i.e., in street name), you should provide proof of beneficial ownership on the Record Date, such as your most recent account statement, a copy of the voting instruction card provided by your broker, trustee or nominee, or other similar evidence of ownership. If you do not provide valid government-issued photo identification or comply with the other procedures outlined above upon request, you may not be admitted to the Annual Meeting.
		The Meeting will begin promptly at 11:00 a.m., local time. Check-in will begin at 10:30 a.m., and you should allow ample time for the check-in procedures.
7.	Q:	How does the Board of Directors recommend I vote on the proposal?
	A:	The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” all of the nominees listed in Proposal 1.

1

8.	Q:	How can I vote?
	A:	You can vote in person or by proxy. To vote by proxy, sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card. If you return your signed proxy card to American Stock Transfer before the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies on the card will vote your shares as you directed. You may revoke a proxy at any time before the proxy is exercised by:
	1.	giving written notice of revocation to Tammy Bitterman, Director, Human Resources, of Caraco, at 1150 Elijah McCoy Drive, Detroit, Michigan 48202;
	2.	submitting another proxy that is properly signed and later dated;
	3.	voting in person at the Meeting (but only if the shares are registered in Caraco’s records in the name of the shareholder and not in the name of a broker, dealer, bank or other third party).
9.	Q:	What is a quorum?
	A:	There were 28,732,094 shares of Caraco’s common stock outstanding on the Record Date. A majority of the outstanding shares, or 14,366,048 shares, present or represented by proxy, constitutes a quorum. For purposes of a quorum, abstentions and broker non-votes are included. A broker non-vote is a proxy a broker submits that does not indicate a vote for some or all the proposals because the broker does not have discretionary voting authority and the broker did not receive instructions as to how to vote on those proposals. A broker non-vote may also occur if your broker fails to vote your shares for any reason. A quorum must exist to conduct business at the Annual Meeting.
10.	Q:	How does voting work?
	A:	If a quorum exists, each director must receive the favorable vote of a majority of the shares voted, including abstentions present in person or represented by proxy, but excluding broker non-votes.
		Caraco will vote properly executed Proxies it receives prior to the Meeting in the way you direct. If you sign the proxy card but do not specify instructions, the shares represented by Proxies will be voted “FOR” the nominees for directors. No other matters are currently scheduled to be presented at the Meeting. If any matter or matters are properly brought before the Meeting or any adjournment thereof, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy card to vote the shares represented by the proxy card as they determine.
11.	Q:	Who pays for the costs of the Meeting?
	A:	Caraco pays the cost of preparing and printing the proxy statement and soliciting proxies. Caraco will solicit proxies primarily by mail, but may also solicit proxies personally and by telephone. Caraco will reimburse banks, brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding solicitation material to beneficial owners of Caraco’s common stock.
12.	Q:	When are shareholder proposals for the 2008 Annual Meeting due?
	A:	All shareholder proposals to be considered for inclusion in next year’s proxy statement must be submitted in writing to the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of Caraco Pharmaceutical Laboratories, Ltd., 1150 Elijah McCoy Drive, Detroit, Michigan 48202, before April 1, 2008.
13.	Q:	How may a shareholder communicate with the Board of Directors?
	A:	Shareholders may communicate with the Board of Directors or any member of the Board of Directors by sending a letter addressed to the Board of Directors, c/o Tammy Bitterman, Director, Human Resources, at 1150 Elijah McCoy Drive, Detroit, Michigan 48202. The Board of Directors’ policy is to have all shareholder communications compiled by the Director, Human Resources and forwarded directly to the Board or the director as indicated in the letter. All letters will be forwarded to the appropriate party. The Board of Directors reserves the right to revise this policy in the event that this process is abused, becomes unworkable or otherwise does not efficiently serve the purpose of the policy.

PROPOSAL 1 – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Election of Board of Directors

Caraco’s Board of Directors is divided into three classes with each class of directors elected to a three-year term of office. At each annual meeting, Caraco shareholders elect one class of directors for a three-year term to succeed the class of directors whose term of office expires at that meeting. This year you are voting on three candidate directors. Based on the recommendation of the Board of Directors, the following individuals, each of whom is a current director, are recommended for re-election: Timothy S. Manney, Madhava Reddy and Sudhir V. Valia. Mr. Manney has been a director since 2004, Mr. Reddy has been a director since 2005 and Mr. Valia has been a director since 1997. Each of the nominees has consented to his nomination and has agreed to serve as a director of Caraco if elected.

If any director is unable to stand for re-election, Caraco may vote the shares to elect any substitute nominee recommended by the Board of Directors. If the Board of Directors does not recommend any substitute nominees, the number of directors to be elected at the Annual Meeting may be reduced by the number of nominees who are unable to serve.

Caraco’s Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” these nominees.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS COMMITTEES

Board of Directors

During fiscal 2007, the Board of Directors met four times. All of our current directors attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and the committees on which they served, except for Messrs. Shanghvi, Desai and Valia. The Board of Directors encourages Board members to attend each Annual Meeting of Shareholders. At the 2006 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, four of the Caraco directors were in attendance. In addition to meetings, the Board and the committees take corporate action through unanimous written consents.

The Board of Directors is fixed at nine members. The Board has determined that Messrs. Crissman, Manney, Reddy and Ugeux are “independent” directors within the meaning of Section 121A of the American Stock Exchange Company Guide (“Amex Company Guide”). Unless a company is a “controlled company” under the Amex Company Guide, a majority of its Board of Directors must be independent. As a result of Sun Pharma owning a majority of the outstanding voting shares, Caraco is a controlled company under Amex Company Guide and is therefore not required (i) to have a majority of independent directors on its Board; (ii) to have the compensation of the chief executive officer and all other officers determined or recommended to the Board either by the Compensation Committee comprised of independent directors or by a majority of the independent directors, and (iii) to have nominations to the Board of Directors either selected, or recommended for the Board’s selection, by either a nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors or by a majority of the independent directors.

Committees of the Board

The Board maintains three standing committees: audit, compensation and independent. These are described below.

4

Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is responsible for selecting, evaluating, retaining and, where appropriate, replacing Caraco’s independent auditors. Generally, the Audit Committee monitors the integrity of Caraco’s financial statements and the independence and qualifications of the independent auditors. The Audit Committee is governed by a written charter. The Audit Committee’s responsibilities are described in more detail in such charter. A copy of the charter was included as Appendix A to the 2005 Proxy Statement. The Audit Committee has been established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Audit Committee held five meetings in fiscal 2007. The current members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Manney, Reddy and Ugeux. Mr. Manney is the committee’s Chairman. Each of these members is independent under Section 121(B) of the Amex Company Guide. As further required by such rules, each of the committee members is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company’s balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Manney is an audit committee financial expert.

Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee oversees Caraco’s policies and programs for the compensation of its officers. The Committee determines the compensation of our chief executive officer and delegates to him the responsibility to determine the base salaries and bonuses of all officers other than the chief executive officer, under the constraints of an overall limitation on the total amount of compensation to be paid to them. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for the review and approval of compensation programs for officers and employees, including fringe benefits and stock options and/or bonuses, as may be from time to time recommended by management. Grants of options or other equity awards are made by the two “non-employee directors” as defined by 16b-3 who are also “outside directors” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Compensation Committee held one meeting during fiscal 2007. The Compensation Committee currently consists of Messrs. Shanghvi, Manney, and Ugeux. Mr. Shanghvi serves as the Chairman.

Independent Committee. The Independent Committee was established to negotiate a products agreement between Caraco and Sun Pharma Global, Inc. (“Sun Global”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Pharma. In 2005, the Board of Directors ratified and approved the authority of the Independent Committee (with respect to past, present and future actions) to review and approve all related party transactions. The Independent Committee held one meeting during fiscal 2007. The Independent Committee currently consists of Messrs. Crissman, Manney, Reddy and Ugeux. All of the members are independent under Section 121(A) of the Amex listing standards currently in effect. Mr. Ugeux serves as the Chairman.

Nomination of Directors

The Board of Directors has not established a formal nominating committee as the entire Board serves in this capacity. The Board of Directors has not maintained a formal nominating committee because the Board of Directors feels that it is not necessary since the size of the Board is relatively small. While the Board has not established a formal committee, in the past the Board has asked one or two of its directors to meet with a number of candidates and to make recommendations to the full Board. The Board may utilize a variety of methods for identifying potential nominees, including considering potential candidates who come to their attention through current officers, directors, Caraco’s professionals, professional search firms or other persons. Once a potential nominee has been identified, the Board evaluates whether the nominee has the appropriate skills and characteristics to become a director in light of the then make-up of the Board of Directors. This assessment includes an evaluation of the candidate’s judgment and skills, such as experience at a policy setting level, financial sophistication, leadership and objectivity. At a minimum, the Board of Directors believes that all members of the Board should have the highest professional and personal ethics and values.

The Board of Directors considers stockholder nominations for candidates for membership on the Board when properly submitted in accordance with Company’s bylaws. The Company’s bylaws provide that nominations for the election of directors may be made by any stockholder entitled to vote in the election of directors if timely notice of such shareholder’s intent has been given in writing to the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Company. To be timely, a shareholder’s notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Company not less than 120 calendar days before the date of the Company’s proxy statement is released to shareholders in connection with the previous year’s annual meeting. Each such notice shall set forth (a) the name and address of the shareholder who intends to make the nomination and of the person or persons to be nominated; (b) a representation that the shareholder is a shareholder of record of stock of the Company entitled to vote for the election of directors on the date of such notice and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the person or persons specified in the notice; (c) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the shareholder and each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nomination or nominations are to be made by the shareholders; (d) such other information regarding each nominee proposed by such shareholder as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules of the SEC, had the nominee been nominated, or intended to be nominated, by the Board of Directors; and (e) the consent of each nominee to serve as a director of the Company if so elected.

Report of the Audit Committee

The information contained in this report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or “filed” with the SEC or subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), except to the extent that we specifically incorporate it by reference into a document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or the Exchange Act.

Our management is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of our financial statements, the accounting and financial reporting principles, and the internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. The independent auditors are responsible for an integrated audit of our financial statements and internal control over financial reporting. The integrated audit is designed to express an opinion on our financial statements, an opinion on management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting and an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. The Committee’s responsibility is generally to monitor and oversee these processes.

          In the performance of its oversight function, the Committee:

 • Met to review and discuss our audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2007 with our management and our independent auditors;

 • Discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, Communication with Audit Committees, as currently in effect, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T;

 • Received from the independent auditors written affirmation of their independence as required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees, as currently in effect, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3600T, and discussed the independent auditors’ independence with them;

While the Committee has the responsibilities and powers set forth in its charter, it is not the duty of the Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that the Company’s financial statements are complete and accurate and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This is the responsibility of management. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for planning and conducting their audits.

Based upon the review and discussions described in this report, and subject to the limitations on the role and responsibilities of the Committee referred to above and in its charter, the Committee recommended to the board that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The equity compensation plans approved by security holders consists of the 1999 Equity Participation Plan. The above referenced options under the 1999 Plan were granted to employees, directors, former directors and consultants and includes the grant of options and shares of stock under Mr. Movens’ employment agreement. See “Compensation of Executive Officers – Employment Agreements.” The equity compensation plans not approved by security holders consist of options granted to an unaffiliated generic drug company with respect to sign-up options for products. With respect to the formula for one product, the Company has determined it is different from the formula approved by the FDA and manufactured and introduced by the Company.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires that Caraco’s directors, executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of Caraco’s equity securities file reports of stock ownership and any subsequent changes in stock ownership with the SEC not later than specified deadlines. To Caraco’s knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to Caraco, all directors, executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of Caraco’s equity securities complied with applicable Section 16(a) filing requirements for fiscal 2007, except as follows: Mr. Movens filed a late report with respect to one transaction, and Sun Pharma and its affiliates filed a late report with respect to one transaction.

TRANSACTIONS OF DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CERTAIN BENEFICIAL HOLDERS OF CARACO

The following discloses transactions during fiscal 2007, fiscal 2006, the Transition Period (January 1, 2005 through March 31, 2005) (the “Transition Period”), and calendar year 2004, and proposed transactions between Caraco and several of the incumbent and nominee directors, executive officers and security holders who beneficially hold in excess of five percent of our outstanding shares:

On November 21, 2002, we entered into a products agreement with Sun Global. Under the agreement, which was approved by our independent directors, Sun Global has agreed to provide us with 25 new generic drugs over a 5-year period. In exchange for each new generic drug transferred to us by Sun Global which passes a bioequivalency test, we issue Sun Global 544,000 shares of Series B preferred stock. During fiscal 2007, fiscal 2006, the Transition Period and 2004, Sun Global earned 1,632,000, 4,896,000, 1,632,000 and 3,808,000 shares of Series B preferred stock for three product transfers, nine product transfers, three product transfers and seven product transfers, respectively, as provided under the November 2002 products agreement.

During fiscal 2007, fiscal 2006, the Transition Period and 2004, we purchased approximately $38.8 million, $28.1 million, $5.3 million and $16.7 million, respectively, of our raw materials and formulations from Sun Pharma. We intend to continue to purchase raw materials and formulations from Sun Pharma in fiscal 2008.

During fiscal 2007, fiscal 2006, the Transition Period and 2004, Caraco purchased at Sun Pharma and its affiliates’ cost, approximately $0.8 million, $0.2 million, $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, of machinery and equipment from Sun Pharma and its affiliates. We intend to continue to purchase machinery equipment from Sun Pharma and its affiliates in fiscal 2008.

We entered into two non-cancelable operating leases during 2000 with Sun Pharma to lease production machinery. The leases each require rental payments of $4,245, and expired during fiscal 2006.

Caraco entered into a manufacturing and supply agreement and a distribution and sale agreement in December 2004 with respect to one product with an affiliate of Sun Pharma, Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, Inc. (“SPII”). Caraco entered into another distribution and sales agreement with SPII in the Transition Period with respect to another product. There were no earnings by Caraco from these agreements in 2004. In the Transition Period, Caraco earned $45,000 from the sale and distribution of the first product and $33,000 from the sale and distribution of the second product. In fiscal 2006, Caraco earned $290,000 and $0 from the manufacture, sale and distribution of the first product and from the distribution and sale of the second product, respectively. In fiscal 2007, Caraco earned $291,539 and $0 from the manufacture, sale and distribution of the first product and from the distribution and sale of the second product, respectively.

During the Transition Period, SPARC Bioresearch Private Limited (“SPARC”), an affiliate of Sun Pharma, performed certain analytical studies required as part of the bio-equivalency process for two products. The Company incurred approximately $172,000 of costs during the period for the studies performed by SPARC. No similar studies were performed by SPARC during fiscal 2007, fiscal 2006 or during the year ended December 31, 2004.

In fiscal 2007, Caraco entered into a three-year marketing agreement with Sun Pharma, which was reviewed and approved by the Independent Committee. Under the agreement, the Company purchases selected product formulations offered from Sun Pharma and markets and distributes the same as part of its current product offerings in the U.S., its territories and possession, including Puerto Rico. In fiscal 2007, Caraco earned $1.2 million from the sale and distribution of such products.

Caraco and Sun are currently negotiating a proposed new technology transfer agreement for the transfer of products on a cash basis.

COMPENSATION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

This Compensation Discussion & Analysis (“CD&A”) outlines our compensation philosophy, objectives and processes for our executive officers. It explains how we make executive compensation decisions, the data we use and the reasoning behind the decisions that we make.

10

Following the CD&A are tables and other information that explain the compensation for our executive officers, including discussion of the potential compensation of our executive officers following termination of employment under different situations.

These tables and narratives are required under the new SEC executive compensation disclosure rules and assist us in communicating our compensation plans to our stockholders.

Compensation Philosophy

Our compensation philosophy extends to all employees, including executive officers, and is designed to align employee and stockholder interests. The philosophy’s objective is to pay fairly based upon the employee’s position, experience and performance. Employees may be rewarded through additional compensation when the company meets or exceeds targeted business objectives. Generally, under our compensation philosophy, as an employee’s level of responsibility increases, a greater portion of his or her total potential compensation becomes contingent upon annual performance.

          The principles of our compensation philosophy are described below:

• Market-driven. Compensation programs are structured to be competitive both in their design and in the total compensation that they offer.

• Stockholder-aligned. Certain full-time employees have some portion of their incentive compensation aligned with our financial performance.

• Performance-based. Certain full-time employees have some portion of their incentive compensation linked to a combination of company, departmental, and/or individual performance. The application of performance measures as well as the form of the reward may vary depending on the employee’s position and responsibilities. A formal performance evaluation process is used to objectively assess individual performance.

Review of Executive Officer Compensation

The Compensation Committee (the “Committee” with respect to this section of the proxy statement) determines the compensation of our chief executive officer and delegates to him the responsibility to determine the base salaries and bonuses of all officers other than the chief executive officer, under the constraints of an overall limitation on the total amount of compensation to be paid to them.

Our current policy is that the various elements of the compensation package are not interrelated in that gains or losses from past equity incentives are not factored into the determination of other compensation. For instance, if options that are granted in a previous year become underwater the next year, the Committee does not take that into consideration in determining the amount of the bonus, options or restricted stock to be granted the next year. Similarly, if the options or restricted shares granted in a previous year become extremely valuable, the Committee does not take that into consideration in determining the bonus, options or restricted stock to be awarded for the next year. In addition, the amount of a cash bonus does not affect the number of options or restricted stock that is granted during a particular year.

We have no policy with regard to the adjustment or recovery of awards or payments if our relevant performance measures upon which they are based are restated or otherwise adjusted in a manner that would reduce the size of an award or payment.

Components of Compensation—Executive Officers

Our executive officers are compensated through the following four components:

• Base Salary

• Annual Incentive Compensation

• Long-Term Incentives (stock options and/or grants of stock)

• Benefits

These components provide a balanced mix of base compensation and compensation that is contingent upon each executive officer’s individual performance and Company performance. A goal of the compensation program is to provide executive officers with a

11

reasonable level of security through base salary and benefits, while rewarding them through incentive compensation to achieve business objectives and create stockholder value. We want to ensure that our compensation programs are appropriately designed to encourage executive officer retention and motivation to create stockholder value.

Base salaries, benefits and incentive compensation opportunities are generally targeted between the median and 75^th percentile of general survey market data derived from indices covering these same components for pharmaceutical companies and other publicly traded companies of comparable size. We have not used third party consultants to provide us with recommendations or reports.

Base Salaries

Base salaries are targeted to be competitive when compared to the salary levels of persons holding similar positions in other pharmaceutical companies and other publicly traded companies of comparable size. Each executive officer’s respective responsibilities, experience, expertise and individual performance are considered.

During 2007, the base salaries for Daniel H. Movens, the Chief Executive Officer, Gurpartap Singh Sachdeva, Senior Vice President – Business Strategies, Robert Kurkiewicz, Senior Vice President – Regulatory and Mukul Rathi, interim Chief Financial Officer, were reviewed. Effective April 1, 2007, the Committee increased the Chief Executive Officer’s annual base salary from $405,600 to $429,936. The Chief Executive Officer, with delegated authority, increased base salaries of the other executive officers, effective April 1, 2007, as follows: Gurpartap Singh Sachdeva from $186,030 to $225,096; Robert Kurkiewicz from $156,818 to $161,522 and Mukul Rathi from $85,000 to $88,400.

Annual Bonus

The annual bonus program is designed to reward management, including executive officers. The bonus amounts that are paid depend substantially on our results for the year under consideration and also on the individual employee’s performance. Our Compensation Committee determines the bonus to be paid to our chief executive officer. Under his employment agreement, he is entitled to up to 50% of his base salary. Our chief executive officer, pursuant to delegated authority, determines the bonuses of the other executive officers. Each can receive a certain percentage of his base salary as bonus. The realization of such percentage by any executive officer, including the chief executive officer is dependent on the achievement of certain strategic and tactical goals related to attainment of Company performance objectives and goals, such as sales and cash flow, and objectives and goals relating to the functional area and individual performance of the particular executive officer. These objectives and goals are set each year, including the relative weight to be given to each target.

Long-Term Incentives

Long-term incentives are used to balance the short-term focus of the annual bonus program with performance over multi-year periods. Stock grants and option grants help to align the interests of our employees with those of our stockholders.

         We believe that grants of equity-based compensation:

• Enhance the link between the creation of stockholder value and long-term executive incentive compensation;

• Provide focus, motivation and retention incentive; and

• Provide competitive levels of total compensation.

We made limited option grants in fiscal 2007 to certain executive officers, as reflected in the tables below. The subcommittee of non-employee members of the Compensation Committee receives recommendations from the chief executive officer, based on the chief executive officer’s subjective judgment of an executive officer’s performance, of the appropriate number of options to be granted to an executive officer other than the chief executive officer. The employment agreement of the chief executive officer requires that he be granted options to purchase no less than 40,000 shares of common stock each year during the term of his agreement. The subcommittee then makes a determination of the amount of options to grant based on its subjective determination of his performance. Options are granted with exercise prices equal to the closing price of our common stock on the day immediately preceding the date of grant, with pro rata vesting at the end of each of the following three years.

12

Treatment of Dividends

We have not historically paid cash dividends.

Benefits

In addition to cash and equity compensation programs, executive officers participate in the retirement, health and welfare benefit programs generally available to other employees. In a few limited circumstances, we provide other benefits to certain executive officers, such as car allowances and life insurance premiums, as set forth in the tables below.

All executive officers are eligible to participate in the company’s 401(k) plan on the same basis as our other employees. With the exception of those employees deemed “highly compensated,” eligible employees are permitted to defer between 1% and 90% of their salary on a pre-tax basis through bi-weekly payroll deductions. The company matches $0.50 of each $1.00 of each employee’s contribution up to the first 4% of his or her salary.

Compensation Committee Report

The information contained in this report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or “filed” with the SEC or subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate it by reference into a document filed under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

We have reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management and, based on our review and discussion with management, we have recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement or in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007.

Employment Agreements and Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-in-Control

Daniel H. Movens, the Chief Executive Officer of Caraco, entered into an employment agreement with Caraco dated as of May 2, 2005 (the “effective date”). Under the employment agreement, Mr. Movens agrees to serve as Chief Executive Officer of the Company for period of thirty-six (36) calendar months which will automatically renew at the end of thirty-six (36) months. However, after the initial thirty-six (36) month period, each party may terminate the agreement upon ninety (90) days written notice to the other party. The agreement provides Mr. Movens with: a base salary during the first year of the agreement of $390,000 (which is to be reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee and adjusted accordingly, in its discretion), a bonus of up to fifty (50%) percent of the base compensation (with twenty-five (25%) percent of the base compensation guaranteed only for the first year), and stock options for 40,000 shares upon the effective date at the fair market value of the common stock on the day immediately preceding the effective date and stock options for not less than 40,000 shares of the Company annually thereafter (all such options to vest over a period of three years from the date of their respective grants), a stock grant on the effective date of 45,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (which will vest over a period of three (3) years), and a stock grant of an additional 10,000 shares if the employment agreement is renewed. In addition, the Company provided for the reimbursement to Mr. Movens of his reasonable relocation expenses up to $50,000.

If Mr. Movens is terminated without cause and for a reason other than for nonperformance, if Mr. Movens terminates for good reason, or if there is a change in control (as defined in the employment agreement) of the Company or Sun Pharma, and Mr. Movens terminates within six months thereof because he reasonably determines that there has been a significant change in the nature and scope of his duties and powers, he is entitled to a lump sum severance payment in an amount equal to 1 ½ times the highest annual base and last earned bonus(es), together with health, vision and dental insurance coverage for a period of at least twelve (12) months, and all stock options and stock grants shall be deemed vested in full. With respect to any such amounts which are considered to be “parachute payments” under Internal Revenue Code §280G, the Company shall pay an additional amount representing a gross-up of any federal, state and local income tax liability arising from such payments. If any of the foregoing triggering events had occurred as of March 31, 2007, Mr. Movens would have received payment (including the value of the benefits and the vested options and stock (assuming the closing stock price on March 30, 2007) of $1,669,240. After one year of employment with the Company, the amount of this severance could be reviewed to be increased to two (2) times the highest annual base and last earned bonus(es).

If Mr. Movens becomes disabled (as defined in the employment agreement), or dies, the Company shall be obligated to pay accrued unpaid salary and benefits for a one (1) year period following such date of disability or death. If Mr. Movens quits before the first anniversary of the employment agreement, he will receive no severance compensation. If Mr. Movens quits after one (1) year of service, the Company shall pay him his base salary for a maximum period of one (1) year following such termination, or until he finds another position, whichever comes first.
