Evolution of Indian Life Science Industry
The Indian Pharmaceutical industry has greatly evolved over the last 50 years.
India has proven its strength and capabilities in the areas of manufacturing, drug discovery and
generics.
The domestic industry is now moving into the phase of innovation, with the large and smaller niche
players, focusing on strengthening their research and drug development capabilities.
Life Science industry has become a crucial foreign exchange earner for the country

Extent of Outsourcing in the Pharma Value
Chain
Source: Yes Bank; ICRA
Global Big Pharma companies are facing
high patent expirations, with drugs worth
USD 150 billion going off patent in the
2010-2015 period, thus they are
increasingly looking at the generics
segment.
India constitutes around 8% of total global
generic market, by volume, indicating a
huge untapped opportunity.
For global companies looking to
economize, outsourcing to lower cost
economies results in a cost-arbitrage of
more than 50%.
India adopted the product patent regime in
2005.
India has the second highest number of US
FDA approved plants, after only the US.
Outsourcing to India is projected to spike
up for the discovery and manufacturing of
formulations.

Indian Biotech Industry by 2015
The Indian Biotech industry has seen
high growth with a CAGR in excess of
20%.
The key drivers for growth on the
biotech sector are increasing
investments, outsourcing activities and
exports.
Several newer sub-segments of the
sector like Bio-services, Bio-agri, Bio-
industrials are especially poised for high
growth in the near future.
With the Govt.s focus on the sector and
Indias growing capabilities, this sector
is poised to become a world leader.
Some major Biotech MNCs which have
set up their operations in India include
Amgen, UCB , Biogen Idec, Genzyme ,
Nektar, etc.

Government Support for the Indian Biotech
Industry
Some of its activities include:
Funding ideas through the
Biotechnology Ignition Grant
(BIG) scheme.
Establishing the early POC
through Small Business
Innovation Research
Initiative (SBIRI).
Taking the products to market
through Biotechnology
Industry Partnership
Programme (BIPP).

Department of Biotechnology is actively trying to promote R&D and funding high-risk projects
since its inception.
India's recently approved National Biotechnology Development Strategy (NDBS) includes a
strong focus on science education and training; increasing R&D funding; creating regional centers
of excellence.
Strictly Confidential
Investments in Life Science
For the Life Science industry,
especially for segments like
Biotech and Medical Devices,
early stage equity funding is
crucial due to the nature of the
business.
Other sources of funding
include:
Equity funding
Corporate partnering
Government support
Debt funding
M&A
Biotech sector requires a lot of
angel investments and venture
capital, but this early-stage
funding is especially challenged
due to the perceived high risk
and long gestation period
prevailing in this sector.
The challenge is to identify
good companies with the
potential to outperform.
