Though the pharmaceutical industry has grown at a CAGR of approx. 13% over the two decades, on the domestic front, the ambition translates into a growth rate of 10-11% over the coming decade.
The main reason for growth are i) India has most US-FDA compliant plant outside US._ii) Government support in Innovation and R&D iii) strong drugs manufacturing experts at lower cost of manufacturing in India i.e. about 33% lower than US and iv) Lauch of National Health Programme Ayushman Bharat has potential to grow Indian Pharma Sector etc.
In recent years, India has seen increasing competition from China, which it has been able to leverage due to its inherent cost advantage, manufacturing intermediates and APIs at a cost much lower than those in India. Prime Minister for promoting make in India movement announced to the people become to vocal for local products. In response to the COVID-19 crisis, Indias Union Cabinet approved investment package to boost the countrys Pharma and API production and cut dependence on China. This was a major step in the creation of a self-sufficient healthcare ecosystem in the country.
It is expected that due to patent off of many companies, the export from India will grow, new affordable pharmaceutical product will be invented for sustainable growth of Indian Pharmaceutical industry. It is also expected Indias formulation exports to increase at 13-14% CAGR from fiscals 2020-25.
