The Overview
Under the leadership of Narendra Modi, the government has shown it understands the need to develop the country’s innovative life sciences sector.The Government is due to announce a major reform of intellectual property laws, which it sees as crucial for developing modern, high tech industries. Meanwhile, the Make in India campaign and the last Budget created a number of tax incentives and R&D initiatives aimed at increasing private and public sector research investment. If the pharmaceutical sector is to help propel India towards the next stage of economic development, it needs to be generating much more value, and that means creating medicines instead of just manufacturing copies of what’s invented elsewhere.
The US pharmaceutical industry, largely comprised of innovative, R&D-focused companies, generates a direct output of $4,61,000 per employee in comparison to $1,49,000 on average for other sectors. In Europe, the pharmaceutical industry contributed an international trade surplus of $54 billion. It is no wonder western governments view these industries as major economic assets.
India is now becoming a serious player in vaccine innovation, for instance, with Hyderabad’s Bharat Biotech’s innovative H1N1influenza and rotavirus vaccines and the two anti-malaria vaccines being jointly developed by Ranbaxy and Bharat Biotech. Domestic companies also promise much in active therapeutic proteins, protein and antibody production, and fabrication of diagnostic protein chips.Patients are also benefiting from changes in the Indian industry. Bengaluru’s Biocon is close to releasing an insulin product that can be consumed orally. If successful, it could spell the end of the daily injections regime for around 387 million people with diabetes worldwide, including 67 million in India.
