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.

Economic overview

 

Global economy: The global environment turned adverse in the second half of 2011, owing to turmoil in the euro zone, slow US recovery and monetary imbalance in emerging economies. Growth in several major developing countries (Brazil, India, Russia, South Africa and Turkey) slowed partly in reaction to domestic policy tightening. As a result, global GDP grew 3.9% in 2011 as against 5.3% in 2010.

 

Although action by policymakers in Europe and elsewhere helped reduce vulnerabilities risks of a renewed upsurge of the crisis in Europe continue to loom large, along with geopolitical uncertainties affecting the oil market.

 

Overall, global growth is projected to drop from around 4% in 2011 to about 3.5% in 2012 and projected to recover to 4.1% in 2013 as per IMF (Source: World Economic Outlook, April 2012)

 

Indian economy: India GDP growth declined from 8.4% in 2010-11 to 6.5% in 2011-12. GDP growth in 2011-12 was the lowest in nine years (save 2008-09). Despite low growth, India remained one of the fastest-growing global economies.

 

Global factors (euro zone crisis, geopolitical disturbances and climatic extremities) contributed to the domestic economic slowdown.

 

Headline WPI inflation remained high at around 9% during 2011 for the following reasons:

 

Higher prices of primary products (vegetables, eggs, meat and fish) due to changing diets Increasing global commodity prices

 

Persistently high international crude petroleum prices

 

Domestic factors like monetary tightening and raising the repo rate to control inflation made industrial borrowing expensive, infrastructure projects unviable and depressed the manufacturing sector growth.

 

Besides, the rupee lost more than 10% of its value during the year, making it one of the worst performing currencies in Asia, eroding India Inc.’s profitability, widening India’s trade deficit and adversely impacting India’s current account deficit.

 

USA’s economic growth is projected at 2.1% in 2012 and 2.5% next year, reflecting ongoing fiscal consolidation and continued weakness in housing prices.

 

US generics to reach highs in 2012

 

The year 2012 marks the entry into the peak phase of the patent expiry cycle, with brands worth US$40billion losing patent protection. Several blockbuster drugs (with sales over US$1billion) are set to go generic this year Going ahead, the GDP growth estimates range between 6.7-7% in 2012-13 consequent to the deficient rainfall and its impact on inflation.

 

Global pharmaceutical sector

 

Medical spending is likely to reach nearly US$1,100 billion in 2015, reflecting a slowing growth rate of 3-6% over the fiveyear period compared with 6.2% annual growth over the previous five years. Absolute global spending is expected to be US$210-240 billion, compared to US$251 billion since 2005.

 

Spending on generic drugs (including branded generics) is expected to grow at a CAGR of ~13% through 2015, compared to ~5% CAGR for the overall pharmaceuticals market; their share in the overall medical spending is expected to rise from 20% in 2005 to about 39% in 2015. The share of branded drugs is expected to decline from ~64% of global pharma spend in 2010 to an estimated 53% due to an increasing generic presence arising out of accelerating patent expiries.

 

Pharmerging countries are expected to double pharmaceutical spending in five years, adding US$150 billion by 2015 driven by accelerated volumes. The growth of a number of pharmerging countries aremarked by strong domestic companies which market low cost generics, branded generics and unauthorised variants of original brands. Patients pay out-of-pocket for the majority of medicines in these markets, which limits the use of expensive new medicines.

 

Indian pharmaceutical sector

 

Until not too long ago, India's pharmaceutical space was written off as a self-pay generics-based market adept at

product duplication; today, the sector has claimed a significant share of the global market by leveraging strengths and enhancing its regulatory and technical maturity.

 

Currently, the Indian pharmaceutical industry's market size (including export) is estimated at Rs. 1 trillion per annum. It ranks third in the world by drug volume (10% of global share) and fourteenth by value (about 3% of global sales).

 

 The Indian formulations market (valued at Rs. 482000.000 millions) grew at a CAGR of 14-15% over five years driven by a convergence of factors (rising household incomes, increasing incidence of lifestyle-related diseases, improving healthcare).

 

The Indian pharmaceutical market growth is largely driven by formulations for chronic therapies; acute therapies are largely driven by Tier-III cities and rural penetration.

PRESS RELEASE

 

Venus Remedies launches ‘ELORES’ - CSE 1034 a US patent protected product in India

 

•CSE1034 “ELORES” is effective against even the toughest carbapenemase resistant Metallobetalactamses.

•It is unique and shows outstanding results as it not only kills resistant pathogens (Bacteria) but also prevents the spread of resistance.

 

18th January, 2013 : Venus Remedies Limited, a research based global pharmaceutical company launched CSE1034 under the brand name “ELORES” . It is a novel Antibiotic Adjuvant Entity (AAE) to combat antimicrobial resistance caused by MDR, ESBL producing strains.

 

The product was launched by Dr. K.N. Parsad, Associate Professor, Department of Microbiology, Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences, Lucknow at Manthan 2013, a seminar-cum-workshop organised by 'Venus Medicine Research Centre' (VMRC). The single-session seminar-cum-workshop was chaired by Dr. Yatin Mehta, Chairman, Medanta Institute of Critical Care and Anesthesiology, Medanta The Medicity, Gurgaon, Haryana which was also attended by the eminent doctors from the healthcare fraternity of India.

 

At the unveiling ceremony of ELORES, Dr. (Mrs.) Manu Chaudhary, Joint Man aging Director and Director- Research, Venus Remedies Limited said, “ Receiving

US patent for ELORES was a landmark development to initiate the process of commercialization and today we are launching it in India as ELORES.” Designed specifically to target growing bacterial resistance mechanisms, ELORES has a unique profile of action which gives it an edge over all the existing therapies. This unique antibiotics adjuvant entity creates a synergistic effect due to its activity on AMRINGER (Acquired Multiple Resistance in Gram Negative Enterococci and Rods) which stops development and spread of bacterial resistance. Dr. Chaudhary further added that our product is effective against Metallo betalactamases (MBL) producing pathogens which are not susceptible to most of the existing antibiotics. It is also unique in its way that it not only kills resistant pathogens (Bacteria) but also prevents the spread of resistance.

 

ELORES comprises of a third generation cephalosporin, a beta lactamase inhibitor along with non antibiotic adjuvant Disodium Edetate for intravenous administration. It is effective against MDR pathogen producing ESBLs, MBLs like NDM-01, increases cell permeability while working on Cell impermeability mechanism of MDRs, regulate 'Efflux pump over expression', breaks bacterial 'Biofilms', prevents 'Transfer of resistant plasmid' and hence the spread of resistance is controlled.

 

The Company is positioning ELORES as the need of the hour as it would be able to reduce a minimum of 30% of the hospitalisation cost and almost 50% of the drug cost, thereby proving to be very beneficial for the patients. As per a study conducted in Delhi, patients with hospital-acquired infections experienced a significantly longer hospital stay (mean: 22.9 days); significantly longer intensive care unit (ICU) stay (mean: 11.3 days); a significantly higher mortality (mean: 54%) and cost significantly more (mean: US$ 14, 818) than controls. So, ELORES would be able to curtail these statistics.

 

It took Venus almost ten years of constant hard work and dedication to develop this breakthrough technology. The Company has conducted Clinical Trials Phase I, II and III successfully on a large patient population of 654 patients to prove clinical efficacy and safety in ESBL/MBL resistant pathogens.

 

On an average, the Company has spent 10% of its revenue in research and has beeninvesting almost 20% of its R&D expenditure for developing and establishing this technology itself.

 

Speaking on this occasion, Mr. Pawan Chaudhary, Chairman and Managing Director, Venus Remedies Limited said, “ ELORES is a novel product with a unique technology specifically addressing the compounding medical emergency of Antimicrobial Resistance, and thus there is no direct competition as such. However, products like

meropenem and pipracillin+tazobactum are the closest in contested category though they are also getting huge resistance.”

 

Currently, India possesses a huge anti-infective market of around INR 8.5 billion. According to a survey, 40% of the antibiotic sales can be attributed to antimicrobial resistance. Of this, 71.5% of the total antimicrobial resistance market comes from the major resistance segment of ESBLs/ MBL resistance (as per a study by AIIMS). Mr. Chaudhary further said, “ We want to cater to this segment effectively and immediately and are expecting to capture 10% share of the total AMR market in India in the next 5 years, making it an over INR 2.0 billion product. Apart from the domestic marketing plans, we are also in talks with leading pharma companies to launch the product in US as well.”

 

Furthermore, ELORES has already secured patents from all over the world Including countries like US, EU (37 European countries), Australia, and Russia. The Company is awaiting registration grant for ELORES with European regulatory bodies to commercialise it there sooner.
