| Abstract: | India’s
economic reforms since 1990s and World Trade Organisation’s Agreement on
Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights have caused significant
changes in the operational environment of the Indian pharmaceutical industry
(IPI). In this backdrop, this study examines the Foreign Direct Investment
(FDI) flows into the firms of IPI. It finds that the amount of FDI, the number of FDI recipient firms and the number
of source countries of FDI are larger during the product patent regime as
compared to the process patent regime. The factor analysis of primary data
presents the perception of 64 sample firms of IPI as regards the main
constraints of FDI inflows in the
product patent regime. |
