The pharmaceutical industry in India ranks 3rd in the world in terms of volume and 14th in terms of value according to Department of Pharmaceuticals, Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers. Indian drugs are exported to more than 200 countries in the world, with the U.S. as the key market. Generic drugs account for 20% of global exports in terms of volume, making the country the largest provider of generic  medicines globally and expected to expand even further in coming years.

India enjoys an important position in the global pharmaceuticals sector. The country also has a large pool of scientists and engineers who have the potential to steer the industry ahead to an even higher level.
