Expansion of E-Pharmacies Driving Paracetamol Accessibility

The rise of e-pharmacies in India is transforming the accessibility and distribution of paracetamol. With increasing internet penetration and smartphone usage consumers are shifting towards online medicine purchases benefiting from doorstep delivery, discounts, and easy access to prescriptions. The rapid expansion of e-pharmacies is supported by strong market growth projections and increasing investments in the sector. According to the report published by IBEF, India's e-pharmacy market is projected to surge from $0.5 billion in 2019 to $4.5 billion by 2025, growing at a 44% CAGR. Currently, 50 e-pharmacies operate capturing 2-3% of total pharmacy sales. Investment in the sector reached $700 million in 2020 fueled by rising internet access and e-commerce adoption.

Growth in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

India's pharmaceutical manufacturing sector is expanding rapidly due to government initiatives, increasing demand for essential medicines, and rising healthcare needs. Policies like the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme is encouraging domestic production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and finished formulations, reducing dependence on imports. The expansion of manufacturing capacities by key players ensures a stable supply of paracetamol for both domestic and export markets. With growing investments in automation and quality compliance, Indian pharmaceutical companies are improving production efficiency and meeting international regulatory standards. The push for self-reliance in API manufacturing, particularly for paracetamol, is further strengthening India's position in the global pharmaceutical industry. According to the data published by IBEF, India's pharmaceuticals market is projected to reach $65 billion by 2024, $130 billion by 2030, and $450 billion by 2047. In FY23, the sector was valued at $49.78 billion, with exports at $27.82 billion. The biosimilars market is set to grow to $12 billion by 2025, while domestic sales are expected to increase by 8-10% in FY24. As pharmaceutical production scales up to meet increasing demand, it is expected to contribute significantly to India paracetamol market share
