18. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT:

18.1 Industry structure and developments:

India is among the top five emerging pharma markets and has grown at an estimated compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13% during the period FY 2009-2013. A new cluster of countries is contributing to the growth of the  Pharma industry, resulting in a robust jump in export of drugs. The country's pharma industry accounts for about 1.4% of the  global pharma industry in value terms and 10% in volume terms. Both domestic and export-led demand contributed towards the robust performance of the  sector.Pharmaceutical sales in India are expected to grow by 14.4 per cent to US$ 27 billion in 2016 from US$ 22.6 billion in 2012,according to a report by Deloitte called "2014 Global Life Sciences Outlook".

Among the fastest growing pharma industries in the world, India's Pharmaceutical Sector is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.1% during 2012-2020 and reach US$ 45 billion. By 2020, the country is expected to be within the top three pharmaceutical markets by incremental growth and sixth largest market globally in absolute size. India exports to more than 200 countries; its share of exports is expected to grow manifold. India's pharmaceutical exports stood at US$ 14.84 billion in FY201314.The United States (US) is the country's biggest market for pharma exports accounting for about 25 per cent, followed by the United Kingdom (UK). We are expecting around 12 per cent growth this fiscal (201415).The export of bulk drugs continue to grow to regulated markets and is supported by India's existing foothold in semi-regulated market

With 70 percent of India's population residing in rural areas, pharma companies have immense opportunities to tap this market. Demand for generic medicines in rural markets has seen a sharp growth. The rural health research centers are expected to put an overall positive impact on the Indian pharma sector highlighting the healthcare issues suffered by rural population and helping the Indian pharmaceutical companies to offer feasible solutions to the challenges. Other measures like setting up of four additional AIIMS and 12 government medical colleges are expected to result in improved quality of medical education and access to healthcare.

As per extant policy, FDI up to 100 per cent, under the automatic route, is permitted in the pharmaceuticals sector for Greenfield investment. Hundred percent FDI is also permitted for investments in existing companies under the government approval route. Further, the Government of India 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.
