The drugmaker's British-Swedish parent has already received approvals for 14 products over the past two years, and aims to expedite more launches to bolster its business in India, a top company official said.

"Our first strategy is to bring innovative medicine faster into the country, which otherwise [patients] would go to other parts of the developed world to buy," Sanjeev Panchal, managing director of AstraZeneca India, told Mint in an interview.
