INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India is developing into an open-market economy, yet traces of its past autarkic policies remain. Economic liberalization, including industrial deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and reduced controls on foreign trade and investment, began in the early 1990s and has served to accelerate the country's growth, which has averaged more than 7% per year since 1997. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of services. Slightly more than half of the work force is in agriculture, but services are the major source of economic growth, accounting for more than half of India's output, with only one-third of its labor force. India has capitalized on its large educated English-speaking population to become a major exporter of information technology services and software workers. In 2010, the Indian economy rebounded robustly from the global financial crisis - in large part because of strong domestic demand - and growth exceeded 8% year-on-year in real terms. However, India's economic growth in 2011 slowed because of persistently high inflation and interest rates and little progress on economic reforms. High international crude prices have exacerbated the government's fuel subsidy expenditures contributing to a higher fiscal deficit, and a worsening current account deficit. Little economic reform took place in 2011 largely due to corruption scandals that have slowed legislative work. India's medium-term growth outlook is positive due to a young population and corresponding low dependency ratio, healthy savings and investment rates, and increasing integration into the global economy. India has many long-term challenges that it has not yet fully addressed, including widespread poverty, inadequate physical and social infrastructure, limited non-agricultural employment opportunities, scarce access to quality basic and higher education, and accommodating rural-to-urban migration.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Global Pharma Market:

The global pharmaceutical market after experiencing a slowing growth during the past two years, is now poised to rebound from low 3-4 percent growth in 2012 to 5-7 percent in 2016 according to a new forecast issued by the IMS Institute for Healthcare Informatics

 

The annual global spending on medicines will rise from $956 billion in 2011 to nearly $1.2 trillion in 2016, representing a compound annual growth rate of 3-6 percent. Growth in annual global spending is forecast to more than double by 2016 to as much as $70 billion, up from a $30 billion pace this year, driven by volume increases in the pharmerging markets and an uptick in spending in developed nations (IMS - The Global Use of Medicines: Outlook through 2016).

 

 The future level of global spending on medicines will have implications for existing healthcare systems and policy makers across the developed and emerging markets. It is expected that the health systems in developed economies experience slow growth in medicines, while the pharmerging markets to drive spending in the next five years. With declining spending on medicines in US and Europe, a distinct shift is also expected in the market shares across the globe. Further global spending on patented drugs is expected to decline due to loss of exclusivity on patent expiries, there will be accelerated shift in spending towards generics in developed markets, rising to 39% of total spend by 2015 up from 20% in 2005. Improved access and strengthening of economies in high growth emerging markets, spending on generic drugs is expected to increase by $ 150bn in the next 5 years.

 

Biologics are expected to account for about 17 percent of total global spending on medicines by 2016, as important clinical advances continue to emerge from research Seven of the top ten global medicines by spending will be a biologic within five years. Adoption of biosimilars as low-cost alternatives to the original biologic medicines will remain limited, as biologics remain protected by patents or market exclusivity in many countries (IMS - The Global Use of Medicines: Outlook through 2016).

 

India

India’s Domestic Pharma Market, which is currently valued at approximately Rs. 629040.000 crores, reflecting strong growth of 16.0% for the twelve months ending March, 2012 (AWACS MAT March, 2012). As per the report of Price waterhouse Coopers (PwC) - 'India's Pharma Inc: Capitalising on India's growth potential', that by 2020, the domestic market will grow to US$ 49 billion - @ CAGR of 15%, with the potential to reach US$ 74 billion – @ CAGR of 20%, if aggressive growth drivers kick in.

 

 

One of the drivers behind this potential growth expectation is a favorable macro environment with higher real GDP growth. While this was true for the last three fiscal years, the GDP growth is expected to slow down to 6.9% in 2012, which is a cyclical response to higher interest rates and lower external demand, policy uncertainty and supply bottlenecks are playing a role and will need to be tackled in the near term to ensure that potential growth does not decline (IMF World Economic Outlook April, 2012). Therefore, Pharma industry’s growth depends upon country’s GDP growth and Government’s propensity to spend more on healthcare The favourable demographics such as rising population increased disposable incomes both in rural and urban India leading to improved access to medicines and shift in disease patterns with a bias towards chronic diseases are expected to drive pharmaceutical growth in the coming years.
