New Delhi: The Ministry of Pharmaceuticals launched an online portal for a £The 5,000 crore scheme is said to support innovations in pharmaceuticals and medical technology.
Prip or support of research and innovation in the pharmaceutical sector of Medtech promises to facilitate applications for the development of new technologies in medicine, including medical devices and drugs for portable, non -transferable diseases and rare diseases.
The government is concerned about small levels of domestic research and development expenditure compared to many other nations, although India is a global leader in generic drug production.
While the US and China will spend $ 60 billion and $ 20 billion on pharmaceutical research and development, Indian expenses are only about $ 3 billion.
Gap
The aim of the PRIP is to bridge this gap and support the culture of research and innovation in pharmaceutical and medics.
The scheme has two main components. First, strengthening the research infrastructure: it is the establishment of the Center of Excellence (COE) in seven existing national institutions of pharmaceutical education and research (Nipers).
Second, support for research in Pharma & Medtech: This component offers direct financial assistance to companies and projects for internal research and development and academic cooperation. It covers six priority areas, including the discovery and development of drugs, medical devices, stem cell therapy, medicinal products for rare diseases and treatment in drug resistant.
“He now lives with the PRIP portal, the government is simple for pharmaceutical companies, Medtech companies and even start -ups to register and increase their research and development skills,” the official explained.
As planned within the system, larger companies can find funding up to £125 crore while startups can provide up to £1 Crore for five years on the basis of their milestones, the official said.
The Indian pharmaceutical market is a global force worth $ 50 billion. While domestic consumption is $ 23.5 billion, exports contribute to significant $ 26.5 billion. India is the third largest pharmaceutical market in the world by volume and 14.
More than half of its exports will achieve highly developed markets, such as the US, EU and Japan, which have a high quality threshold.
Sheetal Arara, Promoter and Managing Director of Human Pharma, emphasized the transformation potential of the Prip scheme.
Pharma Game Changer
“The new PRIP portal is a game changer for the Indian pharmacy. £The 5,000 crore investment is exactly the support we need because we are on the verge of massive growth. India is already leading the world in generic medicines and providing 20% of the global offer. But PR helps us move to innovations and potentially bring more £17 000 crore for research and development from FY28. This really rejoices our competitive advantage.
The timing could not have been better. With many of the main drugs that lose the protection of the patent by 2030, companies that invest in new molecules and the highest research, future leaders. The most interesting thing is that the PRIP supports both innovations and affordable health care. ”
ARORA added that the Prip supports both innovation and affordable health care. “This perfectly corresponds to the goal of India to be a global innovation center and at the same time to make medication accessible worldwide. Prip is not just about money; it is an Indian pharmacy to build a strong and independent future where innovations benefit everyone,” she said.
The Indian Association of Drug Manufacturers actively encourages its members to explore this opportunity, and consider Prip scheme to be a significant leap forward for research and development in the country.
