Brief about Pharmaceutical Sector

Indian Pharmaceutical Industry: An Overview
With the development of infrastructure, creative technology base, and wide production range, the Indian pharmaceutical industry is expected to touch US$ 12 billion by 2010. The domestic pharmaceutical industry has witnessed a growth rate of 9.5% over the last few years. Now, it is hovering to grow over 13% in 2007 to reach a market size of $6.5 billion. Globally, India is 4th in terms of volume (8% of world’s production), 13th in terms of value, and 17th in terms of pharmaceutical export value. The drugs and pharmaceuticals exported are worth over $3.8 billion.

The size of contract research is on the increase at the rate of 25% per year and is expected to touch $380 billion by 2010. An estimate suggests that in the year 2004 the industry received manufacturing contracts worth $75 million. The Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) developed by the industry facilitate the production of different dosage forms.

    Growth of the Pharmaceutical Sector

    The Indian pharmaceutical industry, which is now meeting over 95% of the country’s pharmaceutical needs, was almost non-existent before 1970. It has come a long way. With the compound annual growth of 19.8% per annum, the industry has grown from Rs.4bn in 1970 to Rs.214bn in 2002.

    But the overall value growth of the Indian domestic pharmaceutical market has been negatively affected by increased generic penetration, compelling competition and industry fragmentation. Under these circumstances, companies started introducing value added innovative products, resourcefulness, product life cycle management and increased market research.
