FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS
Economy Analysis
It includes both global economy analysis and country specific analysis.
Global Economy
Inflation
Globally inflation rates have been teadily increasing over the past 5 years, but a slight decrease
in the present year inflation, 3.58% from the previous years. It reflects the right amount of
infaltion for the economies to grow. The all-India general inflation rose to 3.05% in May 2019,
compared with 2.99% in April 2019. The corresponding provisional inflation rate for rural area
was 1.86% and urban area 4.51% in May 2019 as against 1.87% and 4.30% in April 2019.
Interest rates
The Reserve Bank of India lowered its policy interest rate by 25bps to 5.75 percent during its
June meeting and changed its monetary policy stance to "accommodative" from "neutral". the
RBI lowered its growth forecast to 7 percent for 2019/20 from 7.2 percent previously estimated;
and raised its retail inflation outlook for the first half of fiscal 2019-20 to a range of 3 percent to
3.1 percent from a range of 2.9 percent to 3 percent. India’s interest rates of 5.75% was aimed at
the sharp improving of economy while developed countries had lesser rates. America’s is at
2.5%, Australian (1%), British (.75%), Chinease (‘4.3%).Global economic growth is only
growing at 2.6% in 2019, at a loss from expected figure of 3.3. The advanced countries are rising
at 1.4%, while EMDE(Emerging Markets and Developing Economies) at 4.8%.
Echange rates
The Indian currencies are at a rise for the last years, India's forex reserves have raced lately. 1
Euro is at Rs. 76.82, Pound is at Rs. 83.74, US$ at Rs.68.853. Presently exchange rates are
looking positive sor the country.
Political stability
It measures the political tability and Absence of Violence/Terrorism measures perceptions of the
likelihood of political instability and/or politically-motivated violence, including terrorism and
other sort of violence. . The average value for India during that period was -1.14 points with a
minumum of -1.51 points in 2003 and a maximum of -0.83 points in 2017.
INTRODUCTION OF PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY:
In the global scenario Indian pharmaceutical market is the world's fourth largest by
volume of drugs (8 percent of the global market) and thirteenth largest by value (less
than 1 percent of the global market .The prices of medicine are among the lowest in the
world. In the present scenario 70 percent of the Indian population doesn't have access
to drug therapy. According to the Pharma Handbook Per-capita consumption of drugs in
2018 was only $3.33.
But in spite of such strong positioning, Indian government's patent laws were but put on
trial when on 15 feburary,2017 (HINDUSTAN TIMES) the Swiss pharmaceutical
company Novartis accused the government of failing to comply with World Trade
Organization (WTO) rules after it refused to grant the company a patent on its cancer
drug Glivec. India signed up to the WTO's Trade Related Intellectual Property Rights
(Trips) patent regime when it joined the WTO in 1995.
It was later claimed by Novartis that the failure to acknowledge Glivec as an innovative
drug means that India is operating outside these regulations. But this was strongly
rejected by the Indian government, arguing that Glivec is an existing drug with only a
minor alteration.
One of the most interesting facts to be noted here is that only three foreign companies
break through the top 10 companies in India and the Midwest's own Abbott Labs is one
of those companies. But on the other hand only a little more than a third of the Indian
market is represented by the top ten companies. Strangely, though world market leader
Pfizer is not among them. The top Indian companies – Cipla, Ranbaxy, Sun Pharma
and Dr. Reddy's – have all initiated their international strategies by establishing offices
and operations in the U.S. Sun Pharma even has some Midwest roots as it has
acquired a substantial equity chunk of Caraco Pharmaceuticals in Michigan.
Some key changes recently made by the Indian government have altered the dynamics
of investing in India for pharmaceuticals companies:
1. In 2002, the Indian government allowed for 100 percent direct foreign ownership.
3. Import duties on new drugs under development (clinical trials) have been
eliminated.
1. 34 million diabetics
3. 8 million epileptics

The colonial patent law of 1911 secured the Indian market to British industry. A large
majority of drugs were imported from abroad until the Patents Act 1970 brought a
turnaround. Early in the 21st century India has a highly efficient pharmaceutical
industry, blossoming thanks to the weak patent protection of medicines. It provides
essential drugs at affordable prices and creates considerable employment. Today over
90 percent of modern medicine consumed in India are produced locally. From 1 January
2005 India has been complying with the Trade Related Intellectual Property Rights
(Trips) of the World Trade Organization (WTO). The new rules of the game do threaten
India’s achievements.
Now a question may arise as to what are the main factors that transformed the status of
the Indian pharmaceutical industry from a mere importer and distributor of drugs and
pharmaceuticals to an innovator driven by cost and effective producer of quality drugs.
The answer is strategic government policies that helped India in emerging as one of the
fast growing pharmaceutical industry in the world. To add to this with every passing year
trade surpluses and exports are also growing.
Industry revenues
For the first time ever, in 2016, global spending on prescription drugs topped $643
billion, even as growth slowed somewhat in Europe and North America. The United
States accounts for almost half of the global pharmaceutical market, with $289 billion in
annual sales followed by the EU and Japan. Emerging markets such as China, Russia,
South Korea and Mexico outpaced that market, growing a huge 81 percent.
US profit growth was maintained even whilst other top industries saw slowed or no
growth. Despite this, "The pharmaceutical industry is — and has been for years — the
most profitable of all businesses in the U.S. In the annual Fortune 500 survey, the
pharmaceutical industry topped the list of the most profitable industries, with a return of
17% on revenue."
Pfizer's cholesterol pill Lipitor remains the best-selling drug in the world for the fifth year
in a row. Its annual sales were $12.9 billion, more than twice as much as its closest
competitors: Plavix, the blood thinner from Bristol-Myers Squibb and Sanofi-Aventis;
Nexium, the heartburn pill from AstraZeneca; and Advair, the asthma inhaler from
GlaxoSmithKline.
Teradata Magazine predicted that by 2018, $40 billion in U.S. sales could be lost at the
top 10 pharmaceutical companies as a result of slowdown in R&D innovation and the
expiry of patents on major products, with 19 blockbuster drugs losing patent.
