Jefferies: India's CRDMO sector earns USD 3 billion
The Business Guardian
|August 26, 2025
India's contract research, development, and manufacturing organisation (CRDMO) sector is emerging as one of the most dynamic growth stories in the global pharmaceutical landscape.
According to a recent Jefferies India report, the country's CRDMO, which has already reached revenues of around USD 3 billion, has grown at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14 per cent over the past five years.
The report highlights that India's CRDMO industry has caught the attention of global investors, with its market capitalization now standing at USD 40-50 billion. While the Covid-19 pandemic temporarily skewed demand, the future looks stronger. Jefferies estimates an 18 per cent CAGR for the sector between FY25 and FY30, fueled by a visible drug pipeline, Big Pharma's diversification under the "China+1" strategy, and rising opportunities in weight-loss and Type 2 diabetes drugs.

CHHATH: THE GRAND FESTIVAL OF SUPERNATURAL SIGNIFICANCE
At a time when the entire world stands on the brink of destruction, haunted by the terror of wars and the collapse of humanity; when terrorism, through its brutality upon innocent people, has created an atmosphere of fear and dread; when violence and injustice have become the hallmarks of our era and society; when the dignity of women and the innocence of children are under grave threat; when the purity of our thoughts is being corrupted, and the sacred mantra of human virtues seems to be fading away; when the stream of human relationships and compassion has begun to diminish — it is precisely then that the human spirit of resilience and profound hope continues to live on.
