According to the annual report of the Department of Pharmaceuticals Total Annual Turnover of Pharmaceuticals was Rs. 2, 89,998 crore for the year 2019-2020. Total pharmaceutical exports and imports were to the tune of Rs. 1, 46,260 crore and Rs. 42,943 crore respectively in the year 2019-20.

Medicine spending in India is projected to grow 9-12% over the next five years, leading India to become one of the top 10 countries in terms of medicine spending.

Going forward, better growth in domestic sales would also depend on the ability of companies to align their product portfolio towards chronic therapies for diseases such as cardiovascular, anti-diabetes, antidepressants and anti-cancers, which are on the rise.

The Indian Government has taken many steps to reduce costs and bring down healthcare expenses. Speedy introduction of generic drugs into the market has remained in focus and is expected to benefit the Indian pharmaceutical companies. In addition, the thrust on rural health programmes, lifesaving drugs and preventive vaccines also augurs well for the pharmaceutical companies.
