WEAKNESSES
Among the least-developed pharma markets in Asia with extremely low per capita consumption. Underdeveloped healthcare infrastructure. Vast regional disparities in healthcare coverage Many multinationals already selling their products at reduced prices
OPPORTUNITIES
Robust generic and OTC drug market growth Large and growing population boosting pharmaceutical and medical demand Underdeveloped market for chronic illnesses and diagnostics Increasing research and development (R&D) activity by domestic firms Global expansion of larger local companies
THREATS
Failure to properly enforce World Trade Organization (WTO)compliant patent legislation for drugs. Considerable counterfeit drug industry Government failure to revise its opaque and discriminatory pricing and reimbursement policy. Need for overhaul of healthcare delivery structures hampering better access to medicines
PESTLE
POLITICAL LANDSCAPE The country is led by the UPA govt. with the Indian National Congress (INC) party at the front. India continues to rank high on corruption Lacks the political will to implement tough policies. ECONOMIC LANDSCAPE According to Data monitor estimates, Indian economy is expected to grow at more than 8% during 201013. The fiscal deficit is believed to have been around 6.9% during 200910, the highest in 16 years.
SOCIAL LANDSCAPE Indias progress on the social front continues to be slow despite focus on sustained improvement in quality of life. The gender ratio in India is improving.It is at 936 females per 1,000 males as per the 2001 census. TECHNOLOGICAL LANDSCAPE In the prevailing education system, most science and engineering graduates require further training before they can begin work. The 11th five-year plan prioritizes R&D by increasing opportunities in science and expanding R&D in universities. The Indian internet access market generated total revenues of $3 billion in 2009
LEGAL LANDSCAPE
The expansion of the tax base has improved the availability of resources to the central government and individual states. The lack of a single regulator for the financial sector has resulted in limited growth in this area, as inter-linkages have not been fully exploited.
ENVIRONMENTAL LANDSCAPE
India is a poor performer on the Environmental Performance Index (EPI). In an EPI study carried out in 2010, India was ranked in the 123rd position out of 163 countries. Indias dependence on thermal energy, mainly coal-based, has resulted in a host of environmental problems.
A substantial amount of the Indian generic drug market comprises illicit products, due to the countrys lax patent laws. However, conditions are quickly changing for the better. Traditional and ayurvedic medicines are very popular India accounts for almost 10% of global drug production by volume and is increasingly focusing on indigenous R&D.

HEALTHCARE SECTOR
Healthcare services are provided by public and private sectors, the latter having developed in the latest decades when India embraced privatization. Private healthcare boasts of superior quality and facilities. It accounts for more than 65% of primary care and more than 40% of hospitals, resulting in personnel shortages in the public sector. The large geographical size and growing population numbers traditionally have hampered adequate access to medicines and medical services in the sub-continent. As per The Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) it would cost approximately US$200bn over the next five years to solve the crisis in Indian healthcare. To address the funding shortfall, the federation has proposed a five-pronged public-private-partnership (PPP) model.
