Industry Analysis
Indian Pharmaceutical Industry
India plays a significant role in the Global Pharmaceutical Industry. The Indian Pharmaceutical industry (IPI) is ranked 3rd in the world in terms of volume and 14th in terms of value. APIs, formulations, and speciality chemicals make up the Indian Pharmaceutical sector. Under distinct therapeutic divisions, these sectors are further subdivided into Branded and Generics. In FY 2020-21, India’s domestic Pharmaceutical industry was valued at US$ 42 Billion, and it is expected to grow to US$ 65 Billion by FY 202324, and then to US$ 120 Billion by FY 2029-30. It is also likely to increase three-fold in the next decade according to the Indian Economic Survey 2021. The Pharmaceutical industry expanded by 9-11% in FY 2021-22, owing mostly to a boost from emerging and domestic markets. In January 2022, the Indian Pharmaceutical market grew by 13.9% in terms of overall turnover. By demonstrating strength and commitment in the face of the pandemic’s disruption, the Pharmaceutical sector not only demonstrated its capacity to deliver appropriate medications, but also greatly contributed to other areas such as sanitation, preventative healthcare, and quarantine facilities.
India’s pharmaceutical exports are booming due to its significant presence in the Generic space. The Indian pharmaceutical exports totalled US$ 22.21 Billion in FY 2021-22 as compared to US$ 24.44 Billion in the previous year. Increase in freight charges and a drop in shipments to the United States which was caused by price erosion in the United States for some of the items were some of the reasons for the decline. On the other hand, the Indian Pharmaceutical industry supplies more than 50% worldwide demand for vaccines, 40% of Generic demand in the United States, and 25% of all pharmaceuticals in the United Kingdom. India’s pharmaceutical and medicine exports totalled US$ 24.44 Billion in FY 2020-21 and US$ 22.2 Billion from April 2021 to February 2022.
North America was India’s largest pharma export market in FY 2020-21, with a 34% share, while shipments to the US, Canada, and Mexico grew by 12.6%, 30%, and 21.4%, respectively. India is the world’s 12th largest exporter of medical goods. The Pharmaceutical industry accounts for 6.6% of the country’s overall goods exports. In FY 2019-20, Indian pharmaceutical exports were US$ 16.28 Billion, comprising bulk medications, intermediates, drug formulations, biologicals, AYUSH & herbal goods, and surgical items. According to a research, India’s formulation increased by 18% and bulk medication exports increased by 9% YoY in the first half of FY 2020-21.
The Government has taken a number of initiatives to cut expenditures and lower healthcare prices. With the total financial outlay of ` 500 Crores for a period of five years starting FY 2022-26, the Department issued several guidelines on 11th March, 2022 for the scheme ‘Strengthening of Pharmaceutical Industry’ (SPI). The Union Cabinet has approved a change to the existing Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) policy in the Pharmaceutical industry, allowing FDI up to 100% through the automatic route for medical device manufacture under specific conditions.
-----------------------------------
Opportunity Ahead
Increase in Opportunities due to patent cliff
Due to patent expiration in the next 4-5 years, it is projected that Indian pharmaceutical businesses would have an opportunity to grow by roughly US$ 5-6 Billion. When a patent expires, generic medications might enter the market and broaden product offers. Many Indian pharmaceutical businesses are already working on generic versions of copyrighted medications in order to take advantage of the future opportunity. Patented items worth around US$ 240 Billion are scheduled to fall off-patent over the next 4-5 years, till CY 2026.
Increasing FDI Investments
The worldwide spotlight has returned to India’s Pharmaceutical sector as a result of the COVID-19 crisis. In comparison to the previous year, FDI in the Pharmaceutical industry increased by 200% in FY 2020-21. FDI inflows were strong in FY 2021-22 (April-September), at ` 4,413 Crores, an increase of 53% over the same period in FY 2020-21. The unprecedented increase in foreign investments in the Pharmaceutical industry is mostly due to rising demands of COVID-19-related medicinal and vaccination requirements.
Increase in Government Spendings
There has been increase in Government spending over the years. A total outlay of ` 219.40 Billion was made in two tranches of ` 69.40 Billion in 2020, & ` 150 Billion in 2022, for the pharmaceutical PLI plan in 13 important sectors, including active pharmaceutical ingredients, drug intermediaries, and critical starting materials, over the course of five years.
