CHAPTER – I PROFILE OF INDUSTRIES
1.1 HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY
On 1st May 1960 Gujarat State got separated from greater Bombay State. Prior to
that, about hundred years, Gujarat based Companies like Alembic Chemical Works
Ltd. and Sarabhai Chemicals were producing Galenicals, Syrups, Elixirs, Powders,
and Extracts etc.
At the time of independence, India was not self-sufficient for medicines. Many of the
formulations and bulk drugs were imported. Exports of medicine were almost
negligible. Total production of Pharmaceutical products in 1947, the year of
independence - was in the tune of Rs.100 million only. 1
According to data published by the Department of Pharmaceuticals, Ministry of
Chemicals and Fertilizers, the total turnover of India's pharmaceuticals industry
between September 2008 and September 2009 was US$ 21.04 billion. Of this the
domestic market was worth US$ 12.26 billion.
The Indian pharmaceuticals market is expected to reach US$ 55 billion in 2020 from
US$ 12.6 billion in 2009, according to a report ‘India Pharma 2020: Propelling access
and acceptance, realizing true potential’ by McKinsey & Company. The report states
that the market has the further potential to reach US$ 70 billion by 2020 in an
aggressive growth scenario.
Moreover, according to an Ernst & Young and industry body study, the increasing
population of the higher-income group in the country, will open a potential US$ 8
billion market for multinational companies selling costly drugs by 2015. Besides, the
report said the domestic pharma market is estimated to touch US$ 20 billion by 2015,
making India a lucrative destination for clinical trials for global giants.
Further, IMS Health India, which tracks drug sales in the country through a network
of nationwide drug distributors, estimates the healthcare market in India to reach US$
31.59 billion by 2020.The Indian pharmaceutical market reached US$ 10.04 billion in
size, with a value-wise growth rate of 20.4 per cent over the previous year’s
2
corresponding period on a Moving Annual Total (MAT) basis for the 12 months
ended July 2010, according to data from IMS Health India.
Cipla maintained its leadership position in the domestic market with 5.27 per cent
share, followed by Ranbaxy. The highest growth in the domestic market was for
Mankind Pharma, which grew 37.2 per cent. Leading companies in the domestic
market such as Sun Pharma (25.7 per cent), Abbott (25 per cent), Zydus Cadila
(24.1 per cent), Alkem Laboratories (23.3 per cent), Pfizer (23.6 per cent), GSK India
(19 per cent), Piramal Healthcare (18.6 per cent) and Lupin (18.8 per cent) had
impressive growth during July 2010, shows the data.
According to the All India Organisation of Chemists and Druggists (AIOCD), the
pharmaceuticals industry in India will grow by over 100 per cent over the next two
years.
According to Shinde, President, AIOCD, the pharmaceutical industry is currently
growing at the rate of 12 per cent, but this will accelerate soon. The sale of all types of
medicines in the country stands at US$ 9.61 billion, which is expected to reach around
US$ 19.22 billion by 2012.
India's domestic pharmaceutical market is valued approximately at US$ 12 billion in
2010, and has shown a strong growth of 21.3 per cent for the 12 months ending
September 2010, as per consulting firm Pricewaterhouse Coopers (PwC). It estimates
that over the next 10 years, the domestic market will grow to US$ 49 billion, at a
compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15 per cent.
According to Mr Srikant Kumar Jena, Union Minister of State for Chemicals and
Fertilisers, India tops the world in exporting generic medicines worth US$ 11 billion
and currently, the Indian pharmaceutical industry is one of the world's largest and
most developed.2
The industry was once tarnished for making cheap clones of Western medicines and
selling them in developing countries. However, this is no longer the case, seasoned in
the basics of medicine making; it is now playing a significant role in the global drug
industry. The strengthening of patent law and the increasing cost pressures on name-
brand drug makers in the West are fueling the growth tempo of Indian drugs industry.
According to the consultancy KPMG, the industry is expected to grow at a compound
3
annual growth rate of about 18% till 2013-14. The Indian pharmaceutical market has
become the third largest in the world in terms of volume and is ranked 14th in terms of
value at over Rs.1 trillion. During 2009-10, Indian pharmaceutical was among the few
sectors that managed revenue growth despite the global economic recession. Another
positive development has been the development of biotechnology sector in India.
Driven by increasing affordability, the industry is undergoing a major transformation
and is slated to move into the world’s top-ten pharmaceutical market by 2015.
During the 1990s, there were hardly any exports to regulated markets from India.
However, today over 40% of $8 billion exports to North America and Western Europe
alone. The industry has a presence in 150 markets, which is more than any industry in
India. According to the US Food and Drug Administration data, it also accounts for
1,735 Drug Master Files as against 1,054 from US domestic companies and more than
the combined total of European and Japanese companies in 2008. This is a remarkable
achievement in a decade. In 1998, India filed only three Abbreviated New Drug
Applications (ANDAs). In 2009, it filed 181 ANDAs.3

The Indian Pharmaceutical sector is highly fragmented with more than 20,000
registered units. It has expanded drastically in the last two decades. The leading 250
4
pharmaceutical companies control 70% of the market with market leader holding
nearly 7% of the market share. It is an extremely fragmented market with severe price
competition and government price control.
The pharmaceutical industry in India meets around 70% of the country's demand for
bulk drugs, drug intermediates, pharmaceutical formulations, chemicals, tablets,
capsules, orals and injectibles. There are about 250 large units and about 8000 Small
Scale Units, which form the core of the pharmaceutical industry in India (including 5
Central Public Sector Units). These units produce the complete range of
pharmaceutical formulations, i.e., medicines ready for consumption by patients and
about 350 bulk drugs, i.e., chemicals having therapeutic value and used for production
of pharmaceutical formulations.
Following the de-licensing of the pharmaceutical industry, industrial licensing for
most of the drugs and pharmaceutical products has been done away with.
Manufacturers are free to produce any drug duly approved by the Drug Control
Authority. Technologically strong and totally self-reliant, the pharmaceutical industry
in India has low costs of production, low R&D costs, innovative scientific manpower,
strength of national laboratories and an increasing balance of trade. The
Pharmaceutical Industry, with its rich scientific talents and research capabilities,
supported by Intellectual Property Protection regime is well set to take on the
international market.4
Aggregate net sales of 132 pharmaceutical companies consisting of 125 domestic and
seven MNC subsidiaries and associates posted an 11% increase to Rs.13690 crore in
the quarter ended June 2009. Revenue growth from the EU and the US regions was hit
despite improvement in volumes. This is mainly due to the sharp appreciation of the
Indian rupee against the pound euro and US dollar. As a result of rise in sales and
expansion of margin, operating profit rose 22% to Rs.3051 crore. Capacity expansion
and rising interest rates together led to a 72% spike in interest costs to Rs.235 crore
and 11% increase in depreciation to Rs.404 crore, respectively. Thus, growth in profit
before tax was restricted to 11% to Rs.2410 crore. Aggregate net profit of 125
domestic pharmaceutical companies posted an impressive rise of 24% in net profit to
Rs.1755 crore on healthy growth in net sales by 11% to Rs.12397 crore.5
5
The Indian pharmaceutical industry reported double-digit growth in net profit in the
quarter ended September 2010. Rupee appreciation, rise in employee costs and
increase in raw material prices dampened the show. Aggregate net sales of 138
companies constituting 131 domestic pharmaceutical companies and seven MNC’s
pharmaceutical subsidiaries and associates grew 14% to Rs.19044 crore in the quarter
ended September 2010 over the September 2009 quarter. Aggregate net sales of 16
BSE Healthcare Index companies (excluding Piramal Healthcare as it has earned a
one-time exceptional income of Rs.16224 crore) grew 18% to Rs.14764.21 crore
despite the rupee appreciation affected growth to some extent in the quarter ended
September 2010. Net profit increased 30% to Rs.2636.62 crore on forex gains.
MNC companies reported better performance than domestic pharmaceutical
companies by growth in turnover and profit. Aggregate net sales of seven MNC
pharmaceutical companies jumped 15% to Rs.1463 crore.
The Indian pharmaceutical industry is witnessing sluggish prescription trends, pricing
pressure from the European Union, intensified generic competition, and pricing
reforms by Germany. The growth is especially coming from the US, Russia and CIS
regions.6

India is a low-cost hub for Contract Research and Manufacturing Services (CRAMS),
and with many big pharmaceutical companies finding it difficult to grow, focus is
shifting towards India. Till 2008, developed pharmaceutical markets (US, Canada,
UK, Western Europe and Japan) contributed more than 50% of global pharmaceutical
growth and held a disproportional tilt in the market. A group of seven emerging
markets – now rechristened as ‘pharmerging countries’, i.e., Brazil, India, Turkey,
Mexico, Russia, South Korea and China- are eclipsing those developed countries now.
By 2013, these markets are expected to contribute 70% of the global pharmaceutical
market growth.7
In October 2010, the pharmaceutical industry posted a substantially lower growth of
6.5%, as against 20% in September 2010, mainly due to lower sales of anti-infective
and cough and cold medicines. In October 2009, the domestic retail market had
clocked a huge growth of nearly 30%, while during the previous year in October
2008, it posted a negative growth.8
According to a report by PricewaterhouseCoopers, India will join the league of the top
10 global pharmaceutical markets in terms of sales by 2020 with the total reaching
$50 billion.9
1.2 PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY IN GUJARAT
Gujarat's pharmaceutical industry, which led the way with indigenous production of
medicines and the march towards self-sufficiency in drugs and pharmaceuticals in a
newly-independent India, completes its centenary this year.
While Bengal Chemicals, now closed, was the first modern pharmaceutical company
in India, Vadodara based Alembic Ltd, the second, celebrated its centenary in 2007.
The State was the first to manufacture APIs and finished dosage form in India,
manufacture pharmaceutical machinery, lead the way with clinical research
organizations and become the first to undertake pre-clinical safety and toxicology
studies in the country.
Alembic’s potent combination of pioneering vision, entrepreneurial spirit, sound
infrastructure and the ability to adapt to the changing times have helped shape Gujarat
as a pharma hub. From its beginning in 1907 when Alembic was set up in the then
princely state of Baroda, the state today serves as the corporate headquarters and a
7
manufacturing base for several leading Indian pharmaceutical companies and
multinationals.
Gujarat has four pharma manufacturing clusters at Ahmedabad, Vadodara,
Ankleshwar and Bharuch-Vapi-Valsad belt.10 Being home to around 3,500 drug
manufacturing units, Gujarat is one of the country’s most enterprising states in the
pharmaceutical sector. It boasts of 42 percent share of India’s pharmaceutical turnover
and 22 percent share of exports.11
The industry had received strong support from the academic field. In 1940, the Drugs
Laboratory in Vadodara was established, followed by LM College of Pharmacy.
Further in 1989, the B.V.Patel Education Trust, Ahmedabad and Gujarat Branch of
Indian Pharmaceutical Association (IPA) established the B.V. Patel Pharmaceutical
Education and Research Development (PERD) Centre in Ahmedabad.12
45% of the pharmaceuticals used by the nation also happen to be from Gujarat.13
The present research covers the study of the below mentioned five pharmaceutical
companies in the state of Gujarat.

1.4 PROFILE OF TORRENT PHARMACEUTICALS LIMITED
It all began with the toil of one enterprising individual, Shri. U N Mehta, when he
ventured on his own to create history in the Indian pharmaceutical industry by
implementing successfully the concept of niche marketing. His journey, characterized
by ups and downs, reached a milestone in 1970, with the launch of Trinicalm Plus, an
effective tranquilizer in the niche segment, central nervous system (CNS).
The foundations for Torrent were laid when 'Trinity Laboratories' began operations
under the able guidance of Shri Mehta whose efforts are worthy of emulation.
'Trinity' was renamed 'Torrent' and with this not only did the company get a new
name, it also focused on establishing its own manufacturing facilities in the early 80s.

1.5 PROFILE OF SUN PHARMACEUTICALS LIMITED
Sun Pharma began in 1983 with just 5 products to treat psychiatry ailments. Sales
were initially limited to 2 states - West Bengal and Bihar. Sales were rolled out
nationally in 1985. Products that are used in cardiology were introduced in 1987, and
Monotrate, one of the first products launched at that time has since become one of our
largest selling products. Important products in Cardiology were then added; several of
these were introduced for the first time in India.
11
Sun Pharma was listed on the main stock exchanges in India in 1994; and the Rs. 55
crore issue of a Rs. 10 face value equity share at a premium of Rs. 140/- was
oversubscribed 55 times. The minimum 25% that was required under the regulations
then for listing was offered to the public, the owner family continues to hold a
majority stake in Sun Pharma. They used this money to build a greenfield site for API
manufacture, as well as for acquisitions. For the acquisitions, typically companies or
assets that could be turned around and brought on track were identified.
Their first API manufacturing plant was built in Panoli in 1995, for access to high
quality actives ahead of competition, and to tap the vast international opportunity for
speciality APIs.
Another API plant, the Ahmednagar plant, was acquired from the multinational Knoll
Pharmaceuticals in 1996, and upgraded for approvals from regulated markets, with
substantial capacity addition over the years. This was the first of several sensibly
priced acquisitions, each of which would bring important parts to the long-term
strategy
By 1997, their headquarters were shifted to Mumbai, the commercial capital of the
country. We began on the first of our international acquisitions with an initial $7.5
million investment in Caraco Pharm Labs, Detroit. By 2000, we had completed 8
acquisitions, each such move adding new therapy areas or offering an entry to
important international markets. A new research center was set up in Mumbai for
generic product development for the US market. In India, as new therapy areas were
entered into post acquisition; customer attention, product selection and focused
marketing helped us gain a foothold in areas like orthopedics, gynecology, oncology,
etc. From a ranking at 38th in 1994, by the year 2000 Sun Pharmaceutical was ranked
5th with a leadership in 8 of the 11 therapy areas that they were present in. The year
2000 was the year of turnaround at the US subsidiary, Caraco, as it began to receive
approvals after successful inspection by the USFDA. In December 2004, a research
center spread over 16 acres was inaugurated by the President of India, with special lab
space for drug discovery and innovation.

1.8 BRIEF HISTORY OF ENGINEERING INDUSTRY
Hardly any aspect of our life remains untouched by engineering today. Engineers put
power and materials to work for human race — steel and concrete to build bridges,
roads, buildings, dams and glass, metal and plastics to manufacture hundreds of
everyday products. Engineering industry is the pre-requisite of industrialization of a
society or a nation as it portrays the capability to add value to primary products in our
economical world of today where trade has replaced war and finance has replaced
arms.
During the first ten years of independence, engineering industry maintained a low
profile in the unorganized sector through the indigenous efforts of mechanics,
craftsmen and immigrants who had the employees of large industrial units in India.
However, things improved in late fifties when large units such as Karachi Shipyard
and Engineering Works (KSEW) were commissioned in 1956.
While engineering industry has made a substantial progress over the years to produce
such as tractors, motorcycles, electric transformers, switch gears, electric meters, air
conditioners, refrigerators, sewing machines, cars, trucks, diesel engines within the
country, the uncertain as well as non-availability of right type of basic raw material—
steel and its alloys— plus lack of precision needed for the manufacture of parts and
machinery are one of the major constraints for the development of the engineering
industry.24
The following five engineering units are selected for the purpose of study:
1. Elecon Engineering Company Ltd.
2. FAG Bearings India Ltd.
3. Bosch Rexroth India Ltd.
4. Ingersoll-Rand (India) Ltd.
5. GMM Pfaudler Ltd.
