The year 2021 started on a positive note with strong signs of recovery after the first wave of COVID-19. However, the second wave again disrupted the market, led by localized lockdowns and a dampened consumer sentiment.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS:

In terms of the provision of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 ("SEBILODR"), the Management Discussion and Analysis Report forms part of the Annual Report.

1) Outlook 2021-2022: Going forward, the growth is expected to slow even more. Despite the downturn, the predicted expansion rate will be sufficient to get the economy back on track. In 2023, aggregate advanced-economy output will return to its pre-pandemic pattern. Global trade has recovered as a result of a shift in global demand. A solid rebound is projected for investment and stronger trade policies.

2) Global Development and Their Effect: The last two years have been difficult for the world economy on account of COVID-19 pandemic. Repeated waves of infection, supply-chain disruptions and more recently, inflation and geo-political tensions have created particularly challenging times for business & industry and for policy making. The advance estimates suggests that the Indian economy in FY22 is poised for a sharp recovery compared to that in the previous financial year. Despite COVID-19 related uncertainties, there were expectations of a strong double-digit recovery but an intense second wave of COVID-19 pandemic and the recent surge of third wave driven mostly by ‘Omicron which has led to localized lockdowns and other mobility restrictions derailed this growth and dampened consumer sentiments.

3) Indian Economy: The Indian economy is estimated to have grown by nearly 8.2% in 2021-22 fiscal year. The successful roll-out of the worlds largest vaccination drive, pick-up in government spending and better preparedness compared with first wave, limited the negative economic impact. The Central Govt, has plans to boost capital expenditure with govt, spending taking the lead and attracting private

investments in turn. The real GDP growth of the Indian economy in FY23 is expected to be near 8% and fiscal deficit is projected to be 6.4% of GDP, lower than the fiscal deficit of 6.9% of the GDP in FY22. However, the recent geo-political tensions and conflict in Ukraine will weigh on global growth projections. The overall CPI inflation could remain elevated in the near future due to high input costs pressure, largely stemming from supply-chain disruption, shortage of critical inputs and upward pressure on crude oil. The other downward risk to the global growth outlook is the emergence of new COVID-19 variants and increased occurrences of extreme climate events.

4) Effect on Manufacturing Sector: The manufacturing sector was drastically impacted by the pandemic. China, which is the manufacturing hub of the world, was severally impacted by the lockdowns. It brought the manufacturing facilities to a standstill, derailing the entire global supply chain. Mandatory closures, changes in buyer behaviour, disruptions to the supply chain, amongst other factors, contributed to the overall risk that the manufacturing industry is facing. The industry felt most of the impact, causing unemployment, decreases in revenue, and notable delays in production.

5) Specialty Performance Chemicals and Solutions Manufacturing Industry: India occupies a significant position in global API market. The Indian API industry has been gamering a lot of attention globally due to the good quality of APIs, which are being manufactured in the country. Recently, the Indian API industry has been witnessing a fabulous growth owing to a number of factors. Some of these factors are patent expiry of blockbuster drugs, increasing demand for low costing generics, and innovation of new generation of APIs. Apart from these, rise in geriatric population, increasing disposable income, rising healthcare expenditure, and increasing incidences of chronic diseases are the other reasons which are driving the growth of the Indian API industry. According to report on "Indian API Market Outlook 2022", the Indian API domestic consumption market is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of around 10% from FY2016 - FY2022. This report provides the share of India in the global API market. Furthermore, it gives information about the current scenario of the Indian API market, and future forecasts related to it. RNCOS analysts have mentioned the major drivers of the market, and factors hindering growth of the market. The Indian API market has been segmented on the basis of various parameters, such as type of manufacturing, type of API, and type of therapeutic area.

6) Challenges Galore: Few Manufacturers in the API Industry. India was once a favoured destination for sourcing low-cost, good quality API for manufacturing pharmaceutical formulations. However, China took over this market by creating huge capacities. Also, the price of APIs from China is 15-20% less than their production cost in India, making it more viable for the Indian companies to import. Consequently, several companies shifted their focus from the manufacturing of APIs to developing formulations. Another reason for the reduced number of API manufacturers is low profit margin in the API business compared to the formulations business. All these factors have therefore led to the decline in number of API manufacturers in India. Inadequate Infrastructure Facilities Infrastructure is the main area where India lacks in comparison with other countries. The small & medium enterprises engaged in API manufacturing face a lot of problems in terms of infrastructure, as they do not have enough supply of water or electricity; also they do not have warehouses where they can keep their excess stock or raw materials. In other countries such as China, there are free trade zones, high tech parks, and export tJH&cessing zones. In India, the recommendations for the development of API parks are still under

consideration and will take time to get implemented. Therefore, infrastructure development for API production is extremely essential for the enterprises to manufacture the items to their maximum capacity (Indian API Market Outlook 2022 by The Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India)

7) Way forward: Given the fact that the domestic API industry has been struggling for a long time because of high dependence on China, it becomes even more prudent for the country to revive the domestic industry in the wake of an ongoing pandemic. To achieve that, Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers; has recently issued the guidelines of the scheme "Strengthening of Pharmaceutical Industry (SPI) in 11th March 2022 with the objectives of: (a) To strengthen the existing infrastructure facilities in order to make India a global leader in the Pharma Sector by providing Financial assistance to pharma clusters for creation of Common Facilities; (b) to upgrade the production facilities of SMEs and MSMEs, to meet national and international regulatory standards, by providing interest subvention or capital subsidy on their capital loans; (c) to promote knowledge and awareness about the Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices Industry by taking up studies, building databases and brining industry leaders, academia and policy makers together to share their knowledge and experience. The total financial outlay of the scheme for a period of five years from 2021-22 to 2025-26.

Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers strives to improve the infrastructural facilities of the pharma sector in the country towards making India, a global leader in the sector, (a) In order to make the country Atmanirbhar in pharmaceuticals, the Department of Pharmaceuticals has launched the Production Linked Incentives (PLI) Scheme for promotion of domestic manufacturing of critical Key Starting Materials (KSMs)/Drug Intermediates (DIs), and Active Pharmaceuticals Ingredients (APIs) in India, The outlay of the scheme tenure from 2021-30. (b) Production Link Incentive (PLI) scheme for Pharmaceuticals has been launched with tenure from FY2021 - FY2029. The scheme intends to enhance Indias manufacturing capabilities by increasing investment and production in the sector and contributing to product diversification to high value goods in pharmaceuticals sector. The eligible drugs under this scheme include APIs among other categories of pharmaceuticals products, (c) Scheme to provide further support to API pharma companies through providing, financial assistance to the States for establishing three Bulk Drug Parks, (d) Support to the pharma clusters for creating common infrastructure facilities under Assistance to Pharmaceuticals Industry for Common Facilities (API-CF).
