Pharmaceutical Industry in India is one of the largest and most advanced among the
developing countries.
Indian pharmaceutical sector trade provides over fifty per cent of worldwide demand
for numerous vaccines, forty per cent of generic demand within the North American
country and twenty five per cent of all medication in GB. Asian nation contributes the
second largest share of pharmaceutical and biotech personnel within the world. In
March 2018, the Indian pharmaceutical market grew at 9.5% year-on-year.
With seventy one per cent market share, generic medication types the most important
section of the Indian pharmaceutical sector. Asian nation has become the third largest
international generic API businessperson market by 2018, with a 10.2 per cent market
share.
The country accounts for the second largest range of Abbreviated New Drug
Applications (ANDAs) and is that the world’s leader in Drug Master Files (DMFs)
applications with the North American country Indian medication and prescription
drugs sector has received additive FDI price US$ 15.59 billion between Gregorian
calendar month 2000 – Dec 2017.
Indian medication are exported to over two hundred countries within the world, with
the United States of America because the key market. Generic medication account for
twenty per cent of world exports in terms of volume, creating the country the most
important supplier of generic medicines globally and expected to expand even any in
coming back years. The Indian pharmaceuticals exports stood at US$ 17.27 billion in
2017-18.
The Government of India plans to line up a US$ 640 million working capital fund to
spice up drug discovery and strengthen pharmaceutical infrastructure. The ‘Pharma
Vision 2020’ by the government’s department of prescribed drugs aims to create India
a serious hub for end-to-end drug discovery.
Even in these circumstances, the trade has mature price with a median annual rate of
6-7 % over the last 5years.
Indian pharmacy industry ranks 17th in terms of export value of bulk actives and
dosage forms. Indian exports are exported to more than 200 countries around the
globe including highly regulated markets of US, Europe, Japan and Australia. It is one
of the few industries which is export surplus i.e. exports of pharmaceutical products
are higher in value than imports of pharmaceutical products. Also, it is one of the few
industries in India not greatly impacted by the current global economics laid down.
These five public sector drug manufacturing units under the Ministry of Chemicals
and Fertilizers are
India has more drug manufacturing facilities that have been approved by the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration than county other than the US. Indian generics
companies supply 84% of the AIDS drugs that Doctors without Borders uses to treat
60000 patients in more than 30 countries .
The Indian pharmaceutical industry currently tops the chart amongst India’s science
based industries with wide ranging capabilities in the complex field of drug
manufacture and technology.
A highly organized sector , the Indian pharmaceutical Industry is estimated to be
worth $ 6 billion , growing at about 10% annually. It ranks very high amongst all the
third world countries, in terms of technology, quality and the vast range of medicines
that are manufactured. It ranges from simple headache pills to sophisticated
antibiotics and complex cardic compounds almost every type of medicine is now
made in the Indian pharmaceutical industry. The Indian pharmaceutical sector has
expanded drastically in the last two decades. The pharmaceutical industry in India is
an extremely fragmented market with severe price competition and government price
control. There pharmaceutical industry in India meets around 90% of the country’s
demand for bulk drugs, drug intermediates, pharmaceutical formulation, chemicals,
tablets, capsules, orals and injectables. There are approximately 300 big and medium
scale units, which form the core of the pharmaceutical industry in India.
The growth in the institutional segment is likely to raise the market for diagnostics.
Increasing industrialization, literacy levels and urbanization are likely to increase the
health awareness of the general public. Consequently the demand for preventive
medicine in general and immunological like tetanus toxoid, triple antigen (DPT),
measles vaccine are likely to increase. Companies are likely to pay greater attention
to their human resources development effort in general and management
developmental programs in particular. The present state of armed truce between the
trade and the industry is likely to continue in the future. The industry is likely to be
united more closely the before. Companies which have strong research. focus and
competence only, can achieve a sustainable growth and development. Companies that
think steadily increasing their investment in Research and Development.
The Indian Pharmaceutical industry was valued at USD 33 Billion in 2017. The
exports from India alone stood at USD 17.27 Billion. The industry is expected to
grow at a CAGR of 22.4% between 2015- 2020 and achieve a market size of USD 55
Billion, of which the domestic generic market is expected to contribute USD 27.9
Billion. India has also become a popular destination for outsourced contract research
and manufacturing service. The contract manufacturing and research Industry is
expected to have grown at 18-20 % CAGR in 2018, and is expected to have a market
size of USD 18 Billion.
As the pharmaceutical industry operates in the sensitive health sector, there are a
plethora of laws which regulate it. Right from manufacture of drugs to advertisement
and promotion, each step in drug manufacturing and marketing process is regulated.
As mentioned earlier, India introduced a patent protection regime in 2005 to protect
both process as well as product innovation. India now also has its own competition
law to address anti-trust issues which arise in course of day to day operation of the
industry as well as owing to the numerous collaborations which the Industry is
witnessing.
The industry has witnessed numerous changes in the regulatory regime in the recent
past. A new price control order has been enforced and prices of all essential medicines
under the National List of Essential Medicines, 2015 have been brought under price
control. India has implemented a compulsory primary, secondary and tertiary
barcoding requirement on all its exports in a phased manner. A new compensation
regime has been introduced for clinical trial subjects wherein grounds for
compensation have been specified. A voluntary uniform code for marketing practices
of pharmaceutical companies was introduced sometime back to check improper
promotions of drugs before medical practitioners. A large number of fixed dose
combination drugs have been banned due to their unapproved use. Backed by a
strong intellectual property and regulatory framework, the Indian pharmaceutical
industry seems poised to achieve greater heights.
Indian pharmaceutical industry has been witnessing significant growth over past few
years. The size of the Indian pharmaceutical market increased from USD 6 Billion in
2005 to USD 33 Billion in 2017.5 By 2020, India’s pharmaceuticals market is
expected to reach USD 55 Billion and become one of the largest pharmaceutical
market in the world. The pharmaceuticals sector has attracted FDI worth USD 15.72
Billion between April 2000 and March 2018, according to data published by
Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP). The Government also has
plans to set up a US$ 700 million venture capital (VC) fund to give a boost to drug
discovery and strengthen the pharma infrastructure in the country. The Indian
Government, in efforts to boost R&D in the pharmaceutical sector, has established six
National Institutes of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER) and declared
them as ‘Institute of National Importance.
Low cost of production due to variety of factors including cheap labor and raw
material cost;
Big market not only for life saving drugs but also for lifestyle drugs;
Potential for conducting research and development activities in India – India
has more than 300 medical colleges, over 20,000 hospitals;
Existing manufacturing capability to produce active pharmaceutical
ingredients (APIs) as well as intermediates at lower cost while maintaining
quality.
India has maximum number of USFDA approved plants outside USA which
are over 16910 in number.
Ease of conducting clinical trials and bio availability and bioequivalence
studies due to India’s ability to provide speedier and less expensive trials
without compromising quality and vast patient pool;
Product patent regime;
India possesses a skilful work force with high managerial and technical competence.
The track record for development, particularly in the area of improved cost-beneficial
chemicals synthesis for various drug molecules is excellent.
India is democratic country with a solid legal framework and strong financial markets.
These state-run firms provided the foundation for the sector’s growth since the 1970s.
Back then , Indian government aimed to reduce the country’s strong dependence
pharmaceutical imports by flexible patent legislation and to create a self-reliant sector.
In addition, it introduced high tariffs and limits on imported medicines and demanded
that foreign pharmaceutical companies reduce their shares in their Indian subsidiaries
to two-fifths.
Large Market share for Generic Drugs As there was no efficient patent protection
between 1970 and 2005; many Indian drug producers copied expensive original
preparations by foreign firms and produced these generics by means of alternative
production procedures.
This proved more cost efficient than the expensive development of original
preparations as no funds were required for research, which contained the financial
risks. This spending may come to as much as EUR 600 m for only one drug. This
kind of money could previously only be raised by large corporations in the industrial
corporation in the industrial countries.
At one-fifth, India’s share in the global market of generic drugs is considerably higher
than its share in the overall pharmaceutical market (apporx.20%). At the same time,
India’s pharmaceutical companies gained know-how in the manufacture of generic
drugs.
Hence the name “pharmaceutical of the poor” which is frequently applied to India.
This is of significance for the domestic market as disposable income is as little as
EUR 1900 per year for roughly 140 million of the total of 192 million Indian
households, which means the majority of Indians, cannot afford expensive western
preparations.

SKILLS
This pharmaceutical industry employs a broad range of specialist skill sets across all
scientific and commercial disciplines. This does make the sector and exciting and
attractive one to be part of, but also a highly challenging industry to ensure the `right
talent are in the right places. An example of some the specialist skill sets which we
support the recruitment for include.
SYSTEMS
Automated storage and Retrieval system (ASRS)
With the challenges in mind, the Strides team decided to connect all locations in the
new facility’s manufacturing and warehouse areas via a fully integrated automated
storage and retrieval system
(ASRS) “ASRS are available in several manufacturing facilities, but this plant
connected the system into manufacturing operations with a network of conveyors and
automated lifts.
When a person in the manufacturing area makes a request on a computer, the material
will picked up from the warehouse and delivered to that particular location and that
particular floor. That gives a great relief to the manufacturing personnel from the
supportive activities. This is especially helpful during evening or night shifts, when
fewer staff may be available and moving materials across the plant becomes more
challenging.
Strides believes in the policy of providing healthcare and more specifically preventive
healthcare that is beneficial to the needy of the society who cannot afford expensive
medical treatment at large, by providing timely and advanced healthcare and other
medical facilities to all in its local area of operations with a vision to create an
environment which enables to execute the direction HEALTH FOR ALL.

TREND ANALYSIS
A trend analysis is an aspect of technical analysis that tries to predict the future
movement of a stock based on past data. Trend analysis is based on the idea that what
has happened in the past gives traders an idea of what will happen in future.
The liquidity position in 2017 is better than the previous year 2018. It is because
current assets of the current year have increased to 123% as compared with 2018
which was of 74%. In case of current liabilities of 2018 which of 155% where as in
case of previous year it is 96%. It means the organization is in a comfortable position
to meet its short term obligations and is favourably capable of maintaining the
liquidity position.

Solvency is the ability of company to meet its long term financial
obligations. solvency is essential to staying in business as it assets a company’s ability
to continue operation into the foreseeable future.
The decrease in fixed assets especially is an indication of the organization plans for
maintaining the stability in its performance which can also be noticed through
consistency in the ownership funds. /This means the organization is trying to strive a
balance between debt and equity, through its investment activity which is higher in
2018 i.e. 134% which has increasing trend when compared with that of the year 2017
which is of 94%. This approach is to be appreciated as it is an act of maintaining the
stability though there is a slight changes in values.

what is left of the revenue a business generates after it pays all expenses directly
related to the generation of the revenue, such as producing a product, and other
expenses related to the conduct of the business activities.

LEARNING EXPERIENCE
CHAPTER – 6
LEARNING EXPERIENCE
During my work experience at Strides pharma science ltd. I was fortunate enough t
have experience and learned, many different sides of what goes into a project, the
general process of how departments at different levels works, developed and
completed; as weel as how much and detail goes into every stage of it. Another
valuable lesson I have learned during these 4 weeks. were the many different types of
work an individual has to perform, which in turn, have provided me with more insight
into the different types of role and responsibilities that I could perform, as an MBA.
Reflecting back to my first day at Strides ltd, it was one of the most memorable days
of my time at work. After being introduced to everyone, I was handed an act of
observation to look into. They were very open and happy for me to contribute as
much as I wanted to, and were open to any suggestion and ideas. This instantly made
me feel comfortable and definitely made me feel as though I’m happy to say that, I
have gained insights into the working environment, That gave me an opportunity to
develop with well versed relationship building with the personnel.
Overall, my work experience at Strides ltd was positive. I was very happy with the
amount of things that I have learned and experienced in the 4 weeks of being a student
learner with the company. I believe theat Visvesvaraya Technological University
should keep this aspect of the MBA course as it does provide students with the
experience needed in order to find a job later on ( Even if the experience is over a
short amount of time). I ended up learning a lot more than I thought I would be able to
in the time span. The training has exposed me to many facts of an organization an also
helped me to gain practical knowledge, which will go a long way in the horizon of my
career.
