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.

BACKGROUND:

 

Subject together with its subsidiaries and associates; operate as an integrated international pharmaceutical organization with business encompassing the entire value change in and distribution of pharmaceutical products. The company’s equity shares are listed for trading on the National Stock Exchange and the Bombay Stock Exchange in India. As per the audited Balance Sheet as at 31st March, 2011, the Company’s Net Worth had been completely eroded. Therefore, as required under Section 15 (1) of the Sick Industrial Companies (Special Provisions) Act, 1985, the company has made a reference to the Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR) for measures to be determined with respect to the company. Accordingly, the company is registered with the BIFR.

 

OPERATIONS:

 

During the year ended 31st March, 2012, total turnover achieved by the company was Rs. 1545.913 Millions as compared to previous year of Rs. 1546.977 Millions. Though during the year, the sales from formulation business have increased, the comparison with previous year is showing a negligible decrease of Rs. 1.064 Million. This is because previous year’s turnover also includes sales of the erstwhile API division which was sold during the previous year. This year’s turnover consists of formulation business only. The year has registered a net loss of Rs. 1810.662 Millions as compared to net loss of Rs. 1375.724 Millions in the previous year. This is mainly due to the charging of the diminution in the value of investment and impairment of assets during the year.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

 

GLOBAL PHARMACEUTICAL MARKET

 

The pharmaceutical market worldwide, after experiencing a slump during the last couple of years, is now in its recovery path, although very slow. Decline in global pharma market was largely due to the economic slowdown, and further aggravated by patent expiry of key blockbusters together with saturation in key pharma markets, such as the US and Western Europe. Meanwhile, pharma markets in some developing regions, like Asia and Latin America have been continuously witnessing robust growth rate for the last few years on account of increasing prevalence of diseases, rising healthcare spending, and increasing affordability. Overall, these markets will enjoy good growth potential in coming years.

 

The global pharma industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 5% in the coming years. The growth will be

driven by low cost factor, increasing prevalence of diseases worldwide, and rising per capita income of consumers. Sales of generic drugs will emerge as the most prominent segment of the pharma market during the coming period, indicating large opportunities for generics manufacturers. The pharma industry is growing at a rapid rate in emerging countries, such as India, China, Brazil, Russia, among others, while a slowdown is still looming in the US and Western European countries. Recent structural changes in the global pharmaceutical industry has led to outsourcing being a key strategy for improving profitability for innovator companies. These include a) declining productivity, b) rising costs of R&D, c) looming patent cliff, d) increasing genericization of products coupled with weaker pipelines of innovator companies, e) fewer blockbuster launches, and f) delays in new product approvals.

 

Major decisive factors for pharmaceutical companies to adopt outsourcing include flexibility, quicker time-to-market and lower scale-up costs in order to meet increasing demand for new drugs and focus on core competencies. Outsourcing also helps in the reduction of excess capacity in their manufacturing networks and restructure supply chains.

 

GLOBAL OUTSOURCING MARKET:

 

• Global outsourcing market reported a slowdown in growth driven by factors such as inventory rationalization by global innovators, reduced R&D spending etc., triggered by the recent economic crisis.

 

• However, over the medium to long-term, this market is likely to grow at a CAGR of about 20-25 percent, backed by strong fundamental drivers such as a) increased outsourcing by big pharmaceutical companies; and b) increased traction in the new and high-end service contracts.

 

US GENERIC MARKET:

 

• There is continued penetration of generics in the US market due to steeply escalating healthcare costs and the impending patent cliff. Large number of patented drugs are going off-patent in the next few years, thereby offering significant opportunities for Indian pharmaceutical players.

 

THE US GENERIC MARKET PRESENTS THE FOLLOWING ADVANTAGES FOR THE INDIAN GENERICS PLAYERS:

 

• Approval from US FDA can open up a large USD 35bn market;

 

• The market is easier to penetrate as it is dominated by ‘generic generics’ compared to branded-generic markets in the emerging world;

 

• Distribution chain already in place and hence large upfront investments in sales and marketing infrastructure are not required; and

 

• The gestation period is shorter, as there is no need to build relationships with physicians.

 

• The US market accounts for approximately 40 percent of the global generics market and therefore offers a large scope for scaling up operations.

 

INDIAN PHARMACEUTICAL MARKET:

 

Globally India ranks third in term of manufacturing pharmaceutical products in volume. The Indian pharmaceutical industry is expected to grow at around 9.5%. The increasing population of the higher income group, competent and skilled workforce, lower production cost, R & D cost and clinical trial expenses in the country will open a vast market for multinational companies selling costly drugs and making India a lucrative destination for clinical trials for global giants. This will also pave the way for new drug discovery research. The Indian pharmaceutical industry has been the front runner in a wide range of specialties involving complex drug manufacture, development and technology.

 

GROWTH OF INDIAN PHARMACEUTICALS MARKET IS EXPECTED TO BE INFLUENCED BY:

 

• Lower production cost, R and D cost and Clinical trial expenses compared to rest of the world.

 

• Rapid increase in disposable income and number of middle class households.

 

• Expansion of medical infrastructure largely through private investments.

 

• Greater penetration of health insurance.

 

• Rising prevalence of chronic disease. Increased urbanisation and rapidly changing lifestyles in urban and semi-urban areas are expected to see increased incidences of chronic diseases which are expected to provide thrust to specialty and super-specialty therapies.

 

• Adoption of product patents as patent infrastructure scales up to enable up to 30 approvals annually and an average approval timeframe of two years.

 

• Aggressive market penetration as several smaller players have surfaced across the country who are catering to mass therapies.

 

• Solid legal framework and strong financial market.

 

OUTLOOK

 

Despite the aforesaid threats, risks and concerns, the Management looks forward to a satisfactory performance in the coming years in the light of the opportunities available with more focus on the formulation business which are expected to grow in the years to come. The following key factors will drive the Company forward:

 

1. Global presence – Export Oriented Unit

 

2. Low cost manufacturing base

 

3. World class manufacturing facilities with huge capacities approved by major global health authorities

 

4. Own front ends into UK/Europe and Australia

 

5. Tie up with big pharmaceutical companies

 

6. Strong R and D, Dossier development capabilities

 

7. Preferred outsourcing partner
