INTRODUCTION
 
This Amendment No. 4 to Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 (this “Final Amendment”) is being filed by (i) Caraco Pharmaceutical Laboratories, Ltd., a Michigan corporation and the issuer of the equity securities which are the subject of the Rule 13e-3 transaction (“Caraco”), (ii) Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited, an Indian corporation (“Sun Pharma”), (iii) Sun Pharma Global, Inc., a British Virgin Islands corporation (“Sun Global”), and (iv) Dilip S. Shanghvi, chairman of Caraco and of Sun Pharma (collectively, the “Filing Persons”).  This Final Amendment amends and supplements the Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 16, 2011, as amended on April 18, 2011, May 6, 2011, and May 10, 2011 (the “Schedule 13E-3”).
 
This Final Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) to report the results of the transaction that is the subject of the Schedule 13E-3.  Sun Laboratories, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) is not a filing party to this Final Amendment because it was merged with and into Caraco upon the consummation of the Merger (as defined below).  Except as set forth in this Final Amendment, all information in the Schedule 13E-3 remains unchanged.
 
Item 15.
Additional Information.
 
Regulation M-A Item 1011
 
Item 15(b) is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

“On June 14, 2011, at a special meeting of Caraco’s stockholders, Caraco’s stockholders voted to approve the Merger Agreement.
 
On June 14, 2011, Caraco filed a Certificate of Merger with the Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affaires of the State of Michigan, pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into Caraco, with Caraco continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).  As a result of the Merger, Caraco became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun and Sun Global.  Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of Caraco common stock, without par value, outstanding at the effective time of the Merger (other than shares held by Sun and Sun Global, and shares held by dissenting stockholders) was converted into the right to receive $5.25 in cash, without interest.  Each share, including those held by dissenting stockholders, not held by Sun or Sun Global was then automatically cancelled and ceases to exist.  Dissenting stockholders are entitled to payment for the shares held by them as of the effective time of the Merger in accordance with applicable provisions of Michigan law.  Also at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding option to acquire shares of common stock of Caraco, whether vested or unvested, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of the merger consideration over the per share exercise price of the option, multiplied by the number of shares of common stock subject to the option as of the effective time. 

As a result of the Merger, Caraco’s common stock will cease to trade on the NYSE Amex as of the close of trading on June 14, 2011, and NYSE Amex will file an application on Form 25 with the SEC to report that Caraco’s common stock is no longer listed on the NYSE Amex.  Caraco expects to file a Form 15 with the SEC to provide notice of the suspension of its duty to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.”.
