PLI scheme for Pharma, drones and textiles to be modified by govt

New Delhi: The government is planning to make adjustments to the production-linked incentive PLI scheme for pharmaceuticals, drones, and textile sectors. According to an official statement, these modifications are intended to stimulate investment and bolster manufacturing. An official source has stated that these sectors were chosen on the basis of their performance under the existing scheme for various products.

Higher disbursement scheme for PLI scheme

The official said, “Disbursement of production-linked incentives (PLI) for white goods (AC and LED lights) would start this month and that would push the amount of disbursement, which was only Rs 2,900 crore till March 2023.”

After the identification of sectors, a combined note for approval from the Union Cabinet will be sent. The change in disbursement includes an extension of time for Pharma sectors, and addition of products in some sectors. Within the textile industry, there is a proposal to expand the scope of particular products within the technical textiles category, while in the drone sector, there is a plan to raise the incentive amount.

[ad_1] A report by Angle One Wealth highlighted that Donald Trump’s victory in the US presidential elections is set to boost the stock market. The report highlighted that Trump is seen as a pro-market leader, a stance likely to be met with optimism in both US and Indian markets.  “Trump is considered pro-markets, so the victory is the cherry on the cake,” stated the report, underscoring a sentiment that could drive investors’ confidence.  The report also added that Indian stock markets, in particular, are anticipated to respond with short-term enthusiasm due to the “China+1” strategy, where global companies seek to diversify their manufacturing base beyond China. This trend has significantly benefited Indian markets in recent years.  “We believe this is likely a sentimental effect of India benefitting from the “China+ 1″ strategy. History has indeed shown success in electronic goods (especially mobile phones assembly) and chemicals in the last round of tariffs”, said the report.  The report also highlighted that sectors like electronics, especially mobile phone assembly and chemicals, showed resilience and growth when tariffs were previously imposed, positioning India as an alternative manufacturing hub.  On Trump’s return, India’s preparedness for such opportunities has grown due to several government initiatives to boost exports and manufacturing capabilities. Programs like the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, ‘Make in India,’ tax holidays, and a dedicated semiconductor program have all fostered an export-friendly environment. This groundwork could enable India to capitalise on the current global economic shifts. The report said, “India is more prepared today, having taken many export-friendly decisions in the last few years”.  Sectorally, the report pointed out that Indian defensives like IT and pharma might see a particular upside, as Trump’s victory could strengthen US growth. The Indian IT sector may benefit from increased service demand, potentially through Global Capability Centers (GCCs) operating in India.  Meanwhile, the pharmaceutical industry could witness more significant demand for generic drugs under US government programs, enhancing export potential. Domestic-focused sectors, such as FMCG, may continue to offer stability to investors, driven by a steady rural growth story in India. Private banks, too, are poised for success, thanks to favourable domestic conditions, including higher returns on equity (ROEs) and attractive valuations. The report added that these factors offer promising opportunities for Indian stocks across various sectors.  [ad_2] Source link

Navigating Disruption and Charting a new Success Path

The Indian pharmaceutical industry has been charting an impressive growth story. The growth can be attributed to years of consistent focus on quality, affordability, and innovation. Touted as the ‘pharmacy of the world’, the Indian Pharma industry today delivers generic medicine to over 200 countries from both developed and emerging markets. It is soon expected to account for 13 percent of the size of the global pharma market.

However, the industry’s success is being challenged by emerging technologies, changing consumer behaviour, and tightening regulations. A looming global recession along with multiple headwinds is going to test industry’s resilience. A growing shortfall of input materials, rising inflation and supply-chain disruptions are all impacting the industry. To stay competitive and meet the changing demands of the market, the industry must evolve from a volume to value leadership.

Shift from volume to value leadership:

For years the Indian pharma industry has enjoyed much success in the generics space. But increasing competition and pricing pressures have made it difficult for generic drug manufacturers to maintain high profit margins. On the other hand, complex and specialty drugs offer several advantages. These drugs are often protected by patents, are given a period of exclusivity and higher pricing power. They often also require specialized manufacturing processes and expertise, creating barriers to entry for potential competitors. The Indian industry’s focus must now shift from volume to value leadership prioritizing research and innovation. The government’s Research Linked Incentive scheme can provide a much needed thrust in this direction for the industry.

Reducing dependence on imports and the push toward self-reliance:

Higher input costs have been affecting the profitability of Indian players. At present, India imports 85% of its required Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) from other countries, especially China. The government’s Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme is aimed at countering this issue by boosting indigenous manufacturing and reducing dependence on imports for APIs and other key inputs. The government has identified it as a critical area for the industry to achieve self-sufficiency and collaboration is underway with the industry to achieve it.

Maintaining quality standards remains a top priority:

Site inspections and audits are back in full swing. The industry needs to be dynamic in upgrading its manufacturing capabilities while meeting the required global regulatory standards. Instances of audit observations by regulators impact compliance cost and in turn, hurt the profitability of the industry. Adverse observations from the regulators can lead to a delay in the launch of new products or even impact the revenue stream. The industry must ensure that it is are able to successfully sail through the inspections to avoid speed bumps in its growth trajectory.

Leveraging the patent cliff:

The impending patent expiry for many blockbuster expensive drugs presents the Indian pharma firms with an opportunity to leverage its strengths in generic drug manufacturing and expand its market presence. By capitalizing on such opportunities, the industry can enhance its competitiveness. However, sustaining long-term growth will require maintaining high-quality standards, adhering to regulatory compliance, and investing in R&D.

New leaders must take the reins of the growth story:

Effective leadership will be instrumental in shaping the future Indian pharma industry. The industry needs leaders who have the ability to drive change, foster innovation, and steer the industry towards growth and success. Leaders who can articulate a clear vision for the future of the industry and develop strategic plans to achieve it. The Covid-19 pandemic highlighted the industry’s resilience and the importance of visionary leadership, as Indian pharma companies successfully delivered vaccines not only within India but to multiple countries worldwide.

By prioritizing innovation, diversifying the supply chain, embracing an agile approach to drug development, and adopting digital transformation, the industry can navigate the challenges of inflation, geopolitical turmoil, and intensifying competition. The future of the Indian pharma industry holds great promise as it strives to meet the needs of patients and driven by innovation and a steadfast commitment to quality. The industry is poised to develop and deliver transformative healthcare solutions that improve lives and enhance access to affordable treatments globally and shaping a brighter future for patients worldwide.

India’s API Industry Manufacturing Leadership Talent 2024

API Industry in India

The Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (or API) industry is a crucial segment of the Indian pharma industry (which is anticipated to reach USD 65 billion by 2024) and contributes to around 35 per cent of the pharma market. India is the 3rd largest producer of APIs accounting for an 8 per cent share of the Global API Industry. 500+ different APIs are manufactured in India, and it contributes 57 per cent of APIs to the prequalified list of the WHO.

The growing antagonism between the West and China has also pushed the global pharma majors to source more from countries other than China. India’s emergence as the alternate source of bulk drugs has been quite remarkable.

To capitalize on its API potential, India is building a holistic and conducive ecosystem. In 2020, the government approved INR 6,940 crore for a production-linked incentive (PLI) scheme for the promotion of domestic manufacturing of Key Starting Materials (KSMs) / Drug Intermediaries (DIs), and APIs.

Over the next several years, the Indian API market is anticipated to increase at a CAGR of 13.7 per cent. The Indian API space has become lucrative for several investors and venture capitalists. India’s robust domestic market, advanced chemical industry, skilled workforce, stringent quality and manufacturing standards, and low costs (about 40 per cent less than that in the West) for setting up and operating a modern plant give an added advantage.

As per a report by EY, PE/VC investments in India’s Pharma and life sciences industry have demonstrated an impressive CAGR of 24% over the last 5 years. Since 2022, the Indian Pharma and Healthcare sector has witnessed cumulative M&A deal value of USD 15 billion.

Interestingly, a big chunk of these investments have moved to the API sector where Private Equity players / asset management firms have pursued the strategy of driving consolidation through M&As, strategic investments in API companies and building API platforms. The industry has seen emergence of several large PE owned API platform companies.

Some of these platform companies include Advent International led Cohance Lifesciences / Suven Pharma, PAG & CX Partners led Sekhmet Pharmaventures, and Carlyle backed Viyash Lifesciences and Sequent Scientific (Animal API manufacturer).  In addition to the PE action, the sector continues to see consolidation and divestment, the recent example being the acquisition of Glenmark Lifesciences by Nirma Industries.

Scope of the Study

The API industry continues to see robust action in the Leadership hiring space. Particularly in the Manufacturing function, while demand for senior leadership talent continues to grow, their availability is increasingly becoming less. Adding to this demand supply gap, we have also seen challenges related to increased compensation levels and age profile of senior leadership talent.

This report was put together by WalkWater Talent Advisors after an exhaustive study of manufacturing leadership talent in the API industry. The reports seeks to understand some of the key trends and talent insights which are driving leadership hiring in this function.

Research Methodology

Definitions

Site Heads – Manufacturing leaders who are responsible for all operations in a manufacturing Site.

Cluster Heads – Manufacturing leaders who are responsible for driving manufacturing operations across a cluster of API Sites / Plants.

Chief Operating Officers (COO)– Leaders who are responsible for driving overall manufacturing operations across all manufacturing sites in an organization. They are reported into by Clusters Heads / multiple plant heads.

API – API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) is the biologically active component of a drug that causes an intended medical effect.

Captive Organizations – Firms that manufacturing APIs for their in-house production needs

Merchant Organizations – Firms that manufacture APIs to be sold to third party customers

Key findings

Inferences: One of the startling findings of our study is that there is no diversity talent across leadership levels in the manufacturing function across all company’s studied in this report. In an era of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, this finding is a call out to all key decision makers / influencers  of this industry to urgently address this issue so that there can be better representation of diversity and a more inclusive approach to talent growth in this industry.

Inferences: Given the highly technical nature of the manufacturing roles, it is no surprise that 95% of the leadership talent pool are Chemical engineers / Chemistry Graduates by education. More over, 41% of this talent pool are full time Masters / Doctorates.

Inferences: There are 3 emerging geographic talent clusters for API manufacturing leadership talent in India – AP + Telangana is by far the largest cluster, followed by Maharashtra and Gujarat. These 3 clusters make up more than 82% of the available leadership talent in the manufacturing function and one can expect that these 3 clusters will continue to attract a major portion of planned investments in this sector.

Inferences: A 40% churn in the leadership talent is significant in any industry and given the action happening in this industry, we expect this trend to continue to grow for the next few years. More importantly, as the industry sees continued investments leading to the manufacturing networks becoming more complex, the industry has beefed up hiring of COO candidates to provide leadership and strategic direction to manage the growth of the manufacturing operations.

Inferences: The findings suggest manufacturing leadership talent is ageing in this industry. Further as the demand supply gap widens, the industry will need to focus on better talent management strategies so that younger talent can be groomed to take up leadership responsibilities faster and more effectively. To make up the shortage of leadership talent in the near term, companies are giving extensions to existing talent beyond their retirement age. 

Inferences: Given the increased demand of leadership talent in the manufacturing function, compensation levels have increased in this industry and surprisingly the median CTC across levels are today comparable to CTC trends in FMCG industry for similar talent.

Cost to company (CTC) here means annual fixed + variable compensation. For critical talent, most companies also offer wealth creation opportunity through long term incentives / esops / stocks – this component is not part of the CTC figures above.

The New Leap of Indian Pharma Export in FY23

Introduction

Pharma companies have seen significant growth in the industry, and technological advancement and growing demand are the main factors for this growth. The new rules are helping the industry, and new technology is making it easier to sell medicine. Indian medicine is known for being of good quality and for being innovative, so the future looks good for Indian medicine sales.

This blog will explore the growth of medicine export from India, the factors for the growth of top Indian pharma export companies, and their impact on the economy.

Factors Contributing to the Growth of the Pharmaceutical Industry in India

Here are some pointers explaining the factors briefly.

1. Government Initiatives to Boost Pharma Export

Some initiatives taken by the government to boost the pharma export are as follows:

In March 2022, the government announced the strengthening of the pharmaceutical industry (SPI) scheme with a total budget of 500 crores for FY 2021-22 to FY 2025-26.

After a hiatus, India resumed deliveries of COVID-19 shots to the COVAX program in November-December

In November 2021, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the inaugural Global Innovation Summit for the pharmaceutical industry. The summit will consist of 12 sessions with more than 40 speakers from both national and international backgrounds discussing various topics such as regulations, financing for innovation, and infrastructure for innovation.

The Department of Pharmaceuticals has launched a PLI (Production Linked Incentive) scheme to promote domestic manufacturing of essential bulk drugs to achieve self-sufficiency and reduce the country’s dependence on imports. The total cost of the scheme will be 6,940 crores and will be implemented between FY21 and FY30.

2. Investment in R&D and innovation

Research and development (R&D) are important in every industry. It is particularly essential in the biopharmaceutical research sector. It helps to save lives and increase profits. Developing new vaccinations and therapies is becoming increasingly difficult. Reliable R&D services can help pharmaceutical enterprises follow manufacturing methods, leading to the creation of numerous new medications.

In 2015, the industry spent Rs. 6,02,388 crore on R&D for novel medicines. The approval process for these export medicines can be lengthy, but the number of successful approvals determines the businesses’ ability to recoup their investment and profit.

3. Globalization

When India opened its socialist economy and began trading globally, big pharma exporters from the US and Europe entered the Indian market. They set up cheaper and more efficient production facilities offshore to reduce costs and expand their operations. This created opportunities for small-scale industries to grow their products. The entry of big pharma companies into the Indian market allowed smaller businesses to expand, create more opportunities, and export pharmaceutical products worldwide.

4. Quality and Compliance

Quality and compliance are crucial to India’s growth in the pharmaceutical industry. With the rising pharmaceutical sector, all companies must follow strict quality standards to ensure their products are safe. This led to more investment in research and development and better manufacturing processes.

By applying such factors, India’s pharmaceutical industry is recognized for producing high-quality products that follow international standards, which attracts more business and investment globally. This way, India can export medicines in a more accessible way.

Impact of the Growth of Pharmaceutical Companies on the Economy

The growth of India has had a significant impact on the country’s economy. Here are some ways in which the pharma exporters have contributed to the economy:

1. Improved Healthcare Access

The pharmaceutical industry in India has been growing rapidly. The government is helping more people afford healthcare and medicine by making them cheaper. India needs to have its medical industry so it doesn’t depend too much on China. Therefore, India is making plans to produce more medicine inside the country.

These plans are called “production-linked incentive” (PLI) schemes. The PLI schemes give money to Indian companies to help them make more medicine and medical equipment. The PLI schemes have been working well so far. In the last two years, nearly Rs. 16,435 crore has been given to 55 companies to help them make medicine.

2. Job Creation and Economic Benefits

A pharma exporter plays an important role in the Indian economy. Top Indian pharma export companies employ around 2.7 million people directly to the firm. It also creates employment through the supply chain.

The pharmaceutical sector also contributes to the country’s economic growth by generating revenue and promoting medicine export from India, a leading pharma exporter.

The government of India took several initiatives to promote the sector, including allocating funds for research and development, boosting domestic manufacturing, and promoting innovation to increase medicine export from India.

3. Increased Revenue and Growth for the Indian Pharma Industry

The pharmaceutical industry in India is a significant player in the global market. Here are some reasons why:

The Indian pharmaceutical industry is ranking third in production by volume and 14th by value.

From April 2000 and June 2022, foreign investment in India’s drugs and pharmaceutical industry was around $19.90 billion.

Cipla and Drugs for Neglected Diseases initiative (DNDi) teamed up to launch a new medicine in June 2022 to treat HIV in children in South Africa.

The Union Cabinet has approved FDI up to 100% under the automatic route for manufacturing medical devices subject to certain conditions.

In August 2021, Uniza Group signed an agreement with Lysulin Inc. to introduce Lysulin, a nutritional product for Indian consumers.

How can Pharmaceutical Companies Leverage the New Leap?

Pharmaceutical companies can leverage the new leap in various ways to expand their business and make a mark in the global market. Here are a few pointers:

1. Maximize Efficiency

Production efficiency refers to achieving output goals with minimal input. Collecting data from various areas makes it possible to identify improvement areas. Automation can also reduce the manual input, time, and resources required to complete tasks.

Efficiency can also be improved by the convergence of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) through the use of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technology. It allows for data collected from production to inform business decisions. Efficient communication between IT and OT is facilitated by a common structure for data exchange.

2. Improve Industrial Security

Pharmaceutical companies can face cyberattacks and security threats, which can cause them to hesitate to adopt new technologies that could improve productivity. However, implementing these technologies while safeguarding against security risks can provide a competitive advantage.

Having a strong cybersecurity system and using technologies with top-notch built-in security features is crucial. COPA-DATA has received a certificate of conformity from TÜV SÜD, which verifies compliance with the industrial IT security standards outlined in the ISA/IEC 62443-4-1:2018 guidelines.

3. Simplify Operation Workflows

The pharmaceutical industry has strict quality requirements at every step of the process. The common batch process can be beneficial, but it also means that one error can lead to a ruined batch, wasted resources, and potentially serious consequences. Effective batch control is crucial to avoid these negative scenarios.

Pharmaceutical manufacturers must collect and manage process data to ensure the quality of exported pharmaceutical products. However, relying on paper documentation can lead to errors. Automating data collection with mobile devices can improve efficiency and reduce the likelihood of mistakes. This way, you can export medicines without committing errors.

4. Better Production

Efficiency in pharmaceutical manufacturing can also be improved by increasing machinery life and uptime. Equipment breakdowns and underperformance can cost companies money in terms of repairs, lost production time, and damaged batches of products. Investing in high-quality equipment and implementing an effective maintenance program can help export pharmaceutical products more efficiently.

Predictive maintenance programs can be more efficient than fixed or reactive schedules because they allow companies to forecast when maintenance is needed based on data collected from the sensors. This helps companies avoid unnecessary maintenance work and detect signs of future failures before they cause downtime or high repair costs.

Conclusion

Based on the information, it can be expected that the Indian pharmaceutical company will witness a considerable surge in export growth during FY23. The pharmaceutical company’s growth can be attributed to healthcare expansion and growing research and development. By doing all this, India is now a global lead player that export pharmaceutical products to all nations.

Mediwin Phayrmaceuticals has a unique opportunity to leverage its commitment to quality and innovation to emerge as a dominant player in the industry. Mediwin will capture a substantial portion of the expanding global market and has the potential to become one of the top Indian pharma export companies in the global market.

Expand PLI scheme for pharma to make it research-linked, says industry

Indian pharma industry captains feel that the current production linked incentive (PLI) scheme for the pharmaceutical industry can be expanded to link it to research, and more specifically for research in biologics and biosimilars.

Speaking at BioAsia 2022, Kiran Mazumdar Shaw, executive chairperson, Biocon Group, said that there needs to be a different PLI scheme that needs to focus on the emerging opportunities for Indian pharma. “As a nation we need to start moving towards large molecules of biologics. There is a huge growing interest in combination immuno-therapies. Can we leap-frog? The PLI scheme was far too skewed far too much towards generic drugs. There should have been a much greater allocation for biologics, biosimilars, cell and gene therapies etc, which did not happen,” Shaw explained.

In fact she cited the example of Biocon to say, “We could not be eligible for category A companies because we did not have that many ANDAs. So, we got a very small amount.”

The Rs 15,000 crore PLI scheme announced by the Centre has three categories of companies – category A (FY20 global manufacturing revenue of pharma goods more than equal to Rs 5000 crore), category B (between Rs 500 crore to Rs 5000 crore) and category C (revenue less than Rs 500 crore). The quantum of incentives vary for the three groups – Rs 11,000 crore (Group A), Rs 2250 crore (Group B) and Rs 1750 crore (Group C).

So far 55 drug manufacturers have been selected under the PLI scheme.
