work)
Industry
competition(hig

Bargaining
power of
buyers(lo
w and
medium)
End user of the product is

drugs
Bargaining
powers of
suppliers(low)
Pharma industry
depends upon several
organic chemicals

Naturopathy
Ayurvedic
Homeopathy
• Leverage existing infrastructure to deal with
the need of Oncology Market.
• New partnerships to discover and develop
new therapies focusing on Biosimilar
development.
• Find products which will be less competitive
in the market – Niche Products, products
with IP and technology barrier.
• Increase domestic footprint in generic
market.
• Demand of cost effective generic drugs in
developed and under developed countries.
• Disposable income of people is rising and
they are becoming health conscious –
demand for products like multi vitamins are
increasing ex. success of Rivital by Ranbaxy.
Opportunities
• Increasingly stringent
regulations for new drug
development.
• Intense competition in the
generics segment.
• Price pressure and presence of
international giants like Sandoz
and teva are considerably
slowing down performance of
Indian Pharmaceutical
companies.
• US market is getting
with Indian
overcrowded
players.
