EXECUTIVE SUMMARY An organization study has been conducted by me at Sangrose laboratories, Kochalumoodu, Mavelikara subject to MIB course.

Sangrose laboratories is a pharmaceutical company privately owned and operated by Mr. C.K Alexander who is an entrepreneur research chemist. The company is well known as it is the only producer of Clofazimine. I planned to chose this company to conduct my study as Sangrose is a major producer of basic drugs and also deals with simple pain killers to complex cardiac compounds. My aim was to conduct this study in a company which owns several functional departments and which can offer me good industry interaction and experience. I could make me analyze and study in depth how an organization functions, how systematic activities are to be undertaken for the its smooth functioning. It gave me an opportunity to compare the theoretical practices with the practical situations. The study also aimed to understand the different departmental functions, interact with the managers at different levels, importance of technical advancements and innovations, importance of communication, etc.

CHAPTER 2 INDUSTRY PROFILE 2.1Historic outline of the industry Industry is concerned with the process of extraction of raw materials from the nature andthe various other process of transforming these raw materials into consumable goods. It deals with the function of converting or transforming these materials extracted from nature and to make them fit for human use or consumption. In brief, industry deals with the production of goods of value. SMALL SCALE INDUSTRY Small scale industries are the significant segments of the Indian economy. The basic objectives underlying the development of small and medium scale industries are the increased supply of manufactured goods, the promotion of capital formation, the development of indigenous entrepreneurial skills and the creation of employment opportunities. In addition to this, they also include such socio economic goals or the decentralization and dispersal of manufacturing activities from the metropolitan areas to rural areas, reduction of regional economic imbalances within a country and promotion of entrepreneurial and managerial activities and skills as well as of technology throughout the country.

2.2 Present structure of the industry Pharmacy is an art and science of preparing and dispensing medication and providing the public with drug related information. The modern Indian pharmaceuticals industry has laid its foundation in the early 19th century and it was through a small factory known as bengal chemical and pharmaceutical works, Calcutta. Indian pharmaceutical industry has grown tremendously and presently is in a position to meet 70% of the requirements of drugs of the country. INDIAN PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY Indian pharmaceutical industry is playing a key role in promoting and sustaining development in the vital field of medicines. Around 70% of the countrys demand for bulk drugs, drug intermediates, chemicals, tablets, capsules, orals and vaccines is met by Indian pharmaceutical industry. A number of Indian pharmaceutical companies adhere to highest quality standards and is approved by the regulatory authorities in USA and UK.The production value of the bulk drugs during the year 1997-98 was Rs.2623 and that of pharmaceutical formulations was Rs.12068 Crores. The production of pharmaceuticals in India increased by 13.68% during the year 1997-1998 against the previous year. Now it has rose up to30%. The Indian pharmaceutical industry today has occupied the first rank in the Indias science based industries with wide range of drugs .a lightly organized sector, the Indian pharmaceutical industry is estimated to be worth $4.5 billion, growing at about 8 to 9 percent annually. It ranks very high in the world in terms of the quality, technology and range of medicines manufactured.

2.3 Major government policies The government is the agency that is responsible for fixing various prices for the drugs. Following the de-licensing of the pharmaceutical industry, industrial licensing for most of the drugs and pharmaceutical products has been done. Manufacturers are free to produce any drugs that are duly approved by the controlling authority. Technically strong and totally self reliant, the pharmaceutical industry in India has low cost of production, low research and development cost, innovative scientific manpower, strength of national

laboratories and an increasing balance of trade. The pharmaceutical industry with its rich scientific talents and research capabilities, supported by intellectual property protection regime is well set to take all the international market.

2.4 Predicted scenario of industry India holds the lion share of the worlds contract research business. Over 15 prominent contract research organizations (CROs) are now operating in India, attracted by her ability to offer efficient R&D on a low cost basis. Thirty five percent of business is in the field of new drug discovery and the rest sixty five percent of the business is in the clinical trials arena. India offers a huge cost advantage in the clinical trials domain compared to the western countries. The cost of hiring a chemist in India is one fifth of the cost of hiring a chemist in the west. Indian companies in an effort to consolidate their position will have to increasingly look at the merger and acquisition options of either companies or products. This will enable in offsetting the loss of new product options, improve the R&D efforts and to improve the distribution to penetrate into new markets. In order to stay competitive in future, Indian companies will have to refocus and invest heavily in R&D.
