This paper gives an overview of pharmaceutical industry in India and the likely impact of product patent regime on it. The analysis is based on secondary data published elsewhere. It also reviews the existing patent and drug control laws in India and how they have affected the growth and structure of pharmaceutical industry in the country. Also discussed are strategies to meet the new challenges and the opportunities that Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) Agreement presents to pharmaceutical industry in India. |
