Industry structure and developments: 

Indian pharmaceuticals market registered a growth of 14.3% during 2006-07 with the multinational pharmaceutical companies growing at 6.5% (Source Org/IMS-MAT-2007). The Government continued focus on economic reforms.

The Indian pharmaceutical market currently ranked 4th in the world in terms of volume and 14th in terms of value, is highly fragmented with more than 5000 players and going forward consolidation is expected to take place for improved efficiency and productivity.

·         Controlling of process parameters is very critical

·         Dependency on drug formulation companies

·         Frequent fluctuation in market demand

·         Very sensitive process of manufacturing

 

Opportunities:

·         There is a very good demand of gelatin capsules in overseas and India having good quantum in that and quality of Indian capsules recognized in world.

·         The new Special Economic Zone has been set up at Pithampur for Pharmaceuticals industries and many Multinational and national companies are coming with their formulation plants, hence thy would be the nearest suppliers of the capsules to their plants.

·         Due to improved capital market, there are favourable conditions to invest the surplus funds in good securities and mutual funds for multiple growth of the investors funds.

 

Threats: 

·         India has one of the lower per capita health care expenditure in the world

·         Aggressive price competition from local and multinational players

·         Fast technology change in the manufacturing line of the Company

The Company is in continuous process to launch new variety of capsules and variants to meet out the demands in the coming year and also to expand its marketing reach in other countries for growth in the export as well as domestic turnover. The company with its continued focus on exports stands to gain a lot from the emerging scenario:
