In 2018-19, Indian pharma companies imported bulk drugs and intermediates worth $2.4 billion from China.

          The government’s apex body, the Central Drug Standards Control Organisation (CDSCO) has prepared a list of 38 essential APIs . Drugs like  Crocin and even Hydroxychloroquine API  is Imported from china.

           So India after Corona virus pandemic spread from china, and also after death of our soldiers in Galwan valley near LAC .So India in order to beat Chinese in return is moving towards reducing dependency on the import of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and drug intermediates from China. R Uday Bhaskar, Director-General of Pharmaceutical Export Promotion Council , told that “There has been a 4 per cent reduction in import of APIs and other raw materials from China in the last one year,” About 65 per cent of the raw materials for Indian drug makers worth $3.5 billion are being sourced from China.

So viewers, different pharmaceutical companies of India also reacted to the India Today TV.  Pharma majors are calling on the Government of India to create an enabling environment to take on China.

          "If there is going to be a challenge, we cannot depend on the outside world. We have to depend on our own capability. For that, a strong innovation ecosystem is required and the government has to do what it can, including removing regulatory hurdles. Unfortunately, we are the only country in the world which requires permission to do research," Pankaj Patel, Chairman of Cadila Healthcare, which is currently working on a vaccine for Covid-19 told India Today TV.

             The pharmaceutical industry believes the challenge lies in achieving scale and competitiveness when taking on China. "This cannot just be for domestic consumption alone. It also needs to be for exports. It will take a big leap of faith to invest in this sector,"Satish Reddy, President, Indian Pharmaceutical Alliance and Chairman, Dr Reddy's Laboratories adds  also other companies major officials also reported their opinions and supports towards reducing APIs import in India.
