flag India's pharma sector to grow 7-9% in FY26, led by domestic and European demand, despite slower US growth.

flag India's pharmaceutical industry is projected to grow 7-9% in FY26, driven by 8-10% growth in the domestic market and 10-12% in Europe, despite a slowdown in the US market to 3-5% growth. flag ICRA attributes domestic strength to expanded sales forces, improved rep productivity, rural distribution, and new product launches, supported by government measures like GST exemptions on lifesaving drugs. flag The sector is increasing R&D spending to 6-7% of revenue, focusing on specialty and complex molecules. flag Capital expenditure is expected to reach ₹42,000–45,000 crore, with ₹25,000 crore in inorganic investments. flag Operating margins are forecast to remain strong at 24-25% due to favorable costs and higher specialty product shares.
