INTRODUCTION

The Indian pharmaceutical industry is the world's fourth-largest by volume and is likely to lead the manufacturing sector of India. The earliest pharmaceutical companies in India are Bengal Chemicals, East India Pharmaceutical works limited, which still exist today as one of 5 government-owned drug manufacturers. For the next 60 years, most of the drugs in India were imported by multinationals either in fully formulated or bulk form. The government started to encourage the growth of drug manufacturing by Indian companies in the early 1960s, and with the Patents Act in 1970. However, economic liberalization in 90s by the former Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao and the then Finance Minister, Dr. Manmohan Singh enabled the industry to become what it is today. This patent act removed composition patents from food and drugs, and though it kept process patents, these were shortened to a period of five to seven years. The lack of patent protection made the Indian market undesirable to the multinational companies that had dominated the market, and while they streamed out. Indian companies carved a niche in both the Indian and world markets with their expertise in reverse-engineering new processes for manufacturing drugs at low costs. Although some of the larger companies have taken baby steps towards drug modernization.

INDIAN PHARMACEUTICAL SCENARIO

The Indian pharmaceutical industry is one of the worlds largest and most developed in terms of production volume and domestic consumption. Over the last 30 year India has emerged as a major leader in generic drug production starting from almost nonexistence. Indian drugs are coveted all over the world for its high quality and low cost generic drug manufacturer. The Indian pharmaceutical industry is characterized by the twin benefit of strong domestic consumption growth on the one hand and robust export opportunities on the other

Over the years the market has developed gradually, govt. reforms, change in international markets, had led the industry as what we see today. Indias drug industry is one of the fastest growing segments of the economy with an average 7-8 percent growth over the years. As per the forecast this growth momentum will continue to move on and will touch 15% by the year of 2012.The top pharmaceutical in India are below

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

1. Nagarajan and Burthwal (1990) in their research work entitled profitability and structure: A firm level study of Indian Pharmaceutical Industry, intensively examined the relationship between profitability and structure, using a sample of thirty-eight pharmaceutical firms in India for the period 1970-1982. Two measures of profitability i.e., ratio of net profit to total sales revenue and the ratio of net profits to total assets have been used to find out the determination of profitability. The coefficient of growth rate of sales was positive and significant, suggesting that factors on the demand side of a firm had greater impact o profitability than on the supply side.

2. Debasish Sur and kaushik Chakraborty (2006) in his study financial performance of Indian Pharmaceutical Industry: The Indian Pharmaceutical Industry has been playing a very significant role in increasing the life expectancy and in decreasing the mortality rate. It is the 5th largest in terms of volume and 14th largest in value terms in the world. The comparative analysis the financial performance of Indian pharmaceutical industry for the period 1993 to 2002 by selecting six notable companies of the industry. The comparison has been made from almost all points of view regarding financial performance using relevant statistical tools.

3. Prasad K.V.N, Ahmed Mubasheruddin & Dr. Reddy D. Maheshwara (2012) financial health of a company is a matter of concern for every stake holder of the business. It is in fact the financial position of the company that drives the decision making process of any stake holder. The present study attempts to analyze the financial performance of three major pharmaceutical companies in India: Cipla Ltd, Ranbaxy Laboratories and Dr. Reddy's Laboratories for the period 2006-10. The study is based on fourteen parameters of the variables, Operational & Financial Ratios, Performance Ratios, Growth Ratios and Financial Stability Ratios. The study brings out the comparative efficiency of sample pharmaceutical companies.
