Government Initiatives

The Government of India has unveiled 'Pharma Vision 2020' aimed at making India a global leader in end-to-end

drug manufacture. It has reduced approval time for new facilities to boost investments. Further, the government

has also put in place mechanisms such as the Drug Price Control Order and the National Pharmaceutical Pricing

Authority to address the issue of affordability and availability of medicines.

Romania is keen to tie up with the Indian pharmaceutical companies for research and develop new drugs.

Counselor in Ministry of health in Romania at GCCI. The country will tie up with the Indian pharmaceutical

companies for research and develop new drugs.

Some of the major initiatives taken by the government to promote the pharmaceutical sector in India are as

follows:

� Indian and global companies have expressed 175 investment intentions worth Rs 10000.00 mn (US$ 161.78

million) in the pharmaceutical sector of Gujarat. The memorandums of understanding (MoUs) would be

signed during the Vibrant Gujarat Summit.

� Telangana has proposed to set up India's largest integrated pharmaceutical city spread over 11,000 acres

near Hyderabad, complete with effluent treatment plants and a township for employees, in a bid to attract

investment of Rs 300000.00 mn (US$ 4.85 billion) in phases. Hyderabad, which is known as the bulk drug

capital of India, accounts for nearly a fifth of India's exports of drugs, which stood at Rs 900000.00 mn (US$

14.56 billion) in 2013-14.

Road Ahead

The Indian pharma market size is expected to grow to US$ 85 billion by 2020. The growth in Indian domestic

market will be on back of increasing consumer spending, rapid urbanisation, raising healthcare insurance and so

on.

Going forward, better growth in domestic sales will depend on the ability of companies to align their product

portfolio towards chronic therapies for diseases such as such as cardiovascular, anti-diabetes, anti-depressants

and anti-cancers are on the rise.

Moreover, the government has been taking several cost effective measures in order to bring down healthcare

expenses. Thus, governments are focusing on speedy introduction of generic drugs into the market. This too will

benefit Indian pharma companies. In addition, the thrust on rural health programmes, life saving drugs and

preventive vaccines also augurs well for the pharma companies.
