As world is looking at India as manufacturing hub, India is in driving seat for the bright future in the manufacturing and R&D. India currently holds an accountable share and is known as pharmacy of the world and one of biggest generic supplier. India gained its foothold on the global scene with its innovatively engineered generic drugs and active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). India will be the important player in manufacturing market for the COVID19 vaccine manufacturing as India hold great power to production in huge amount. Local firms have slowly been investing more money into their R&D programs or have formed alliances to tap into these opportunities. This period has been a trying time for the manufacturing industries in general, and highlighted the urgency for India to become self-reliant. Though the ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ there is growth after a brief pause, the continuing pandemic has affected the “self-reliant” discourse quickly. The Post pandemic could be the new era for Pharmaceutical industry for India.
