Structural Reforms to Accelerate Economic Growth

The Indian economy continued to enjoy steady growth, at a time when other countries
were in the grip of a massive slowdown. Radical reforms such as the privatization of public
sector units and reduction of tariffs on imports are responsible for this growth. The EXIM
policy has been designed to promote exports while removal of restrictions on foreign
investment further contributed to development. Over the next five years, growth will be
driven by a favorable business policy environment in terms of tax cuts, broadening tax base,
and reduced interest rates on borrowings.
The prevailing mood of economic confidence is likely to be reflected in the Indian healthcare
industry. The introduction of product patents in India is expected to boost the industry by
encouraging multinational companies to launch specialized life-saving drugs. Attracted by
the advantages such as lower costs of production and skilled workforce that India offers,
these companies are looking to set up research and development as well as production
centers there. The export of bulk drugs and formulations is set to increase at a compound
annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20 percent and 10 percent, respectively, between 2002 and
