world’ as it is the largest provider of generic drugs globally.
It supplies over 50 percent of global demand for various
vaccines, 40 percent of generic demand in the US, and 25
percent of all medicines in UK. This is not all. Companies
around the world are actively applauding the Indian CRO &
CMO for their excellent deliverables and efficiency. But
there are certain challenges faced by the pharma companies
like compliance issues and good manufacturing practices.
Challenges and Opportunities in Life Sciences Sector in
India
One more major challenge is the disjointed structure of the
industry as there are abundant generic manufacturers
leading to instability, volatility, and uncertainty. Sometimes,
the competition between big, mid-sized, and small players
can also lead to low quality compliance. To top it all, the
competitive pressure and government pricing policies adds
to the low margin profits. Even the inputs for research and
development are very low which affects the R&D
departments of the companies and the development of new
products. The stronger IP regulation has also been a big
issue for companies. But positively, the Indian government
has taken many steps to manage medicine costs and overall
affordability of healthcare expenditures.
Alniche is achieving these milestones because of its strong
and proficient senior management team. This expert team
comprises of cohesive and endowed professionals, making
it an exceptional combination of talent, skills, knowledge,
