Assessing the Organization and Laws of the Indian Pharmaceutical Market: Focus on Anti-Competitive Practices and Market Competition

Abstract

The health status of every nation is directly related to its ability to prevent, treat, and promotedisease. Nevertheless, the pharmaceutical industry's expansion is important to implementing these stepswith available qualified people resources and infrastructure. Health professionals, health infrastructure,medical invention and innovation, and the form of government programmes and regulations all have a rolein health status. Pharma Vision 2020, a plan to make India the world's leading producer of end-to-endpharmaceuticals, was unveiled by the Indian government. To encourage more investment, the approvalprocess for new facilities has been sped up. To address this problem, the government has implementedmeasures such as the Drug Price Control Order and the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority(www.idma.com). The manufacturing costs in India are much cheaper than those in the United States andEurope. It offers India an advantage in the competition. (Sectoral Report September 2016)... The rivalryin these marketplaces is critical to the production of high-quality pharmaceuticals at reasonable rates forcustomers. Anti-competitive practises in the industry must be addressed, and the rule of law plays acritical role in ensuring that markets remain competitive. To this end, the researcher sought to assessthe current state of the Indian pharmaceutical market's organisation and laws, as well as the prevalenceof anti-competitive practises. The market becomes less competitive when there is too much regulation.Human society's out-of-pocket costs for pharmaceutical items may be reduced by an equal act ofmanagement and competition.
