SUMMARY
Indian pharmaceutical companies are grabbing headlines on an almost daily
basis and are increasingly carving out market shares for themselves in the US
and many other markets around the world. Several leading Indian pharmaceutical
companies have applied themselves to the challenge of entering Western markets
with great success. These companies now present a very serious threat to the
existing Western generic companies in their domestic markets as they take
ever-larger market shares and increase the levels of competition.
Why has this challenge arisen - what advantages do Indian companies enjoy that
enable them to compete so successfully with Western generic companies?
It is the purpose of this report to answer that question and to provide
Western pharmaceutical companies and others that are interested by this
phenomenon with some explanation of the background. It will also offer some
guidance as to how companies might deal with what some see as a threat and
others view as a welcome source of low-cost generics.
