Biotechnology Industry in India


Introduction
India is emerging as a significant player in the global biotech industry. Biotechnology is deemed as a revolution throughout the world. Scientists, through Research and Development (R&D) are continuing to develop cures for diseases that have affected people since time immemorial. With its large population of over a billion people India creates almost a perfect environment for biotech companies to shift bases here. In addition, the Indian sub-continent, which occupies only 2.4% of the total surface area on earth, has the most diverse species of flora and fauna. Also increasing prosperity raises the demand for healthcare services. The Indian Advantage Promising potential to be a global player in the arena of biotechnology Innovation opportunities: Public funding for product innovation and research in the biotech sector and focused R&D activities by private biotech firms. The sector has experienced significant growth in government spending since 1985 with constantly increasing budgetary allocations to the biotech sector FDI investment up to 100 per cent is permitted via the automatic route Large pool of skilled and cost competitive manpower Well developed and integrated scientific infrastructure Advanced chemical synthesis technologies Manufacturing practices conforming to US and EU norms Diverse biological resources Globally recognized as a producer of low cost, high quality bulk drugs and formulations. In the year 2010-11, this industry 4 earned revenues to the tune of US$ 3.5 3927.6 million growing 21.5 percent 3 over the last years revenue of US$ 3233.2 million. The emphasis 2.5 between exports and domestic sales 2 has also witnessed minor shifts 1.5 ranging between two-to-five 1 1 percent. The exports across segment made up 51 percent of the 0.5 overall revenue contributing a total 0 of US$ 2015.7 million. The ratio 2005 between exports and domestic sales stands at 51:49, which is a sign of a robust industry.

The biotechnology sector can be divided into 5 sub-sectors namely: Bio-Pharma Sector: It is comprised of 130 companies involved mainly in the production of vaccines, therapeutic drugs and diagnostics. The Indian bio-pharma sector is export-driven, with exports accounting for more than 58% of revenue. Bio-Services Sector: A number of global companies are now looking at India to conduct large scale global trials. While low costs and large patient pool still remain the crucial deciding factors for attracting these companies, skilled investigators and emphasis on quality are some of the rising factors contributing to the segments growth. The bio-services sector contributes a total of 22% to Indian Biotech sector and it widely consists of clinical research, contract manufacturing, contract research and consultancy. Bio-Industrial Sector: The modern use and application of biotechnology for the sustainable production of industrially useful products like bio chemicals, biomaterials and bio-fuels from renewable resources, using living cells and/or their enzymes. This results generally in cleaner processes with minimum waste generation and energy use. Enzymes which constitute a major segment of this sector, are used in industrial processing of starch, distilleries, alcohol, textile & garments, leather processing as well as for supplementing healthcare products.

Bio-Informatics Sector: Bioinformatics is the field of science in which biology, computer science, and information technology merge to form a single discipline. Bio-informatics deal with the creation and maintenance of extensive electronic databases on various biological systems; it is the smallest part of the current domestic biotechnology industry. It can play important role in critical areas such as data mining, mapping and DNA sequencing. There is also opportunity in functional genomics, proteomics and molecule design simulation. Major Products and Services include Database Services, Integrated research application software, Biotech software services. Bio-Agri Sector: BioAgri is the biotechnology applied to agriculture. It is the use of organisms or parts of organisms to improve the agricultural products and processes. Selection of desired characteristics, domestication of plant species, and mechanics of cell biology come under this sector. In India, BioAgri is further classified into hybrid seeds, transgenic crops, bio-pesticides and bio-fertilizers.

Plotting the GE/McKinsey Matrix: The Approach


The GE/McKinsey Matrix identifies the optimum business portfolio as one that fits perfectly to the company's strengths and helps to exploit the most attractive industry sectors or markets. Thus, the objective of the analysis is to position each SBU on the chart depending on the SBU's Strength and the Attractiveness of the Industry Sector or Market on which it is focused. Each axis is divided into Low, Medium and High, giving the nine-cell matrix. The following methodology has been adopted to calculate various parameters.

Analysis of GE matrix:
Bio-Pharma: This sector dominates the biotech sector. Industry attractiveness is high and business strength is moderate to high. Launch of many similar products is expected in two years. It is expected to grow at 25%. Bio-Agri: This segment is one of the fastest growing segments. In last 5 years its market share increased from 5% to 14%. It has revolutionized the farming space with the launch of Bt Rice, Bt maize, Bt Tomato and Bt Cauliflower. The sector needs more investments in R&D and acceptance of products among farmers. Bio-Informatics: This is the smallest segment of biotech industry. It barely has 2% of market share in overall industry. Most of the companies in this segment are small scale. Many big companies like TCS and HCL have forayed in this segment. Indian companies need to establish a good reputation to protect client data. Bio-Industry: This segment has slowest growth rate of 12%. Most of the Indian companies do not have their own R&D division. They are importing the enzyme and selling in India. This sector needs more investment in order to strive for high growth Bio-services: This segment is growing at a rate of 20% and is expected to continue the same growth rate in future. The segment is facing competition from small home grown companies. Mandatory registration of all clinical trials in India will lead to a rise in the number of global companies outsourcing clinical trials to India.

Budget 2012: Implications


Following is an analysis to see the impact of the latest budget on the biotechnology sector. Considering the significance of this constantly growing sector on the Indian economy it is only sensible to analyze the effect of the policy changes. Expectations of the Industry: Reduction of Excise duty from the present level of 10% to 4% Reduction of services tax by 5% from existing 10.30% Non inclusion of agrochemicals in the list of Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) Permit tax free import of R&D equipments to the tune of 25% of export earnings

11 | P a g e

States should be prevailed upon not to levy VAT on agrochemicals

Budget Outcome: Basic customs duty is being reduced from 10% to 5% on probiotics (cost-effective means of combating bacterial infections) This year it has been decided to make common infrastructure in agriculture markets, soil testing laboratories and capital investment in fertilizer sector eligible for Viability Gap Funding under the Scheme to support PPP in infrastructure Increase in the allocation for the initiative of Bringing Green Revolution to Eastern India (BGREI) scheme from 400 crore in 2011-12 to 1000 crore in 2012-13 Agriculture Credit: The target for agricultural credit in 2012-13 has been raised to 5,75,000 crore which represents an increase of 1,00,000 crore over the target for the current year Sum of 200 crore for incentivizing research with rewards, both for institutions and the research team responsible for such scientific breakthroughs
