Contribution from the top five therapies stood at 58% of IPM in October 2021. These therapies are cardiac, anti-infectives, gastro-intestinal, anti-diabetic and vitamins
The Indian pharmaceutical market (IPM) delivered slower growth of 5.0% in October 2021 than 12.4% in September 2021. The acute therapy segment (up 8.1% yoy) performed relatively better than chronic segment (up 2.3% yoy). The acute therapy segment demonstrated robust performance since March 2021 (average growth at 30% yoy) owing to lower base last year. These are a few highlights of India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra), report on the IPM.
Post normalisation of the high growth months of April 2021 (up 51.5% yoy) and May 2021 (up 47.8%) led by the Covid-19-led lockdown related lower base last year and higher volume growth, the average IPM growth from June to October 2021 has been healthy (up 12.6% yoy).
The price growth, new product launches growth and volume growth stood at 5.5% yoy, 3.5% yoy and 5.6% yoy, respectively, which led to the overall IPM size of INR1,657 billion in October 2021 (September 2021: INR1,444 billion).
Acute therapy segment continues to report healthy growth compared to Chronic segment
The acute therapy segment reported sales growth of 8.1% yoy in October 2021(September 2021: 17.7% yoy; August 2021: 16.9% yoy), while chronic and sub-chronic therapy segments reported growth of 1.9% yoy (7.4% yoy; 10.8% yoy) and 2.9% yoy (8.9%; 15.3%), respectively. During FY21, the acute therapy segment reported a decline on account of COVID-19 while the chronic therapy segment reported an average growth of 7.0%.
Contribution from the top five therapies stood at 58% of IPM in October 2021. These therapies are cardiac (chronic; 13.0% of IPM), anti-infectives (acute; 14.4%), gastro-intestinal (acute; 11.6%), anti-diabetic (chronic; 9.4%) and vitamins (acute; 9.0%).
