Cliniminds India Market Entry Solutions for Healthcare, Pharma & Life Sciences Growth
Background Information
India’s pharmaceutical industry is currently valued at approximately USD 50 billion in FY 2023–24, comprising around USD 23.5 billion in domestic sales and USD 26.5 billion in exports. The sector has established itself as a global powerhouse, supplying over 20% of the world’s generics and vaccines, and hosting more than 500 FDA-approved manufacturing sites. With strong growth in both domestic demand and international exports, the Indian pharmaceutical market is projected to more than double by 2030, reaching an estimated USD 120–130 billion. This rapid expansion reinforces India’s position as a strategic hub for pharmaceutical innovation, manufacturing, and outsourcing, making it an essential market for global healthcare and life sciences companies.
India’s life sciences outsourcing sector is experiencing fast-paced growth across multiple service domains. As of 2023, the clinical trials market is sized at approximately US $1.33 billion, with projections to more than US $2.22 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 7.6%. Meanwhile, the pharmacovigilance market in India is valued at around US $208 million in 2024, climbing to about US $341 million by 2030 at a CAGR of 8.3%. The broader healthcare contract research outsourcing market—which includes regulatory writing, medical writing, clinical data management, site management, and related services—is estimated at US $987 million in 2024, and is expected to reach nearly US $1.94 billion by 2032, growing at approximately 8.8% CAGR. In the preclinical research/CRO segment, the market size is estimated at US $206 million in 2024, rising to about US $301 million by 2030, with a CAGR of around 6.4%.
Together, these segments highlight India's competitive edge as a cost-effective, high-quality outsourcing destination in life sciences—spanning clinical trials, pharmacovigilance, preclinical services, medical and regulatory writing, and data management—offering global companies a comprehensive and rapidly expanding ecosystem.
India’s healthcare industry is one of the fastest-growing in the world, valued at approximately USD 370–400 billion in 2023–24 and projected to reach USD 650 billion by 2030. The sector is broad-based, spanning multiple high-growth segments: the hospital and healthcare delivery segment accounts for nearly 80% of the market, driven by private sector expansion and government healthcare initiatives; the pharmaceuticals segment contributes over USD 50 billion, with strong domestic consumption and exports; the medical devices industry has crossed USD 12 billion and is expected to grow rapidly; the diagnostics and pathology market is growing at double digits, supported by preventive health awareness and rising lifestyle diseases; the health insurance sector has seen significant adoption, with premium collections crossing USD 30 billion; and the digital health and telemedicine market, currently around USD 3–4 billion, is expanding rapidly with AI-driven diagnostics, e-pharmacies, and government-backed digital health missions. This diverse growth across segments positions India not only as a vast domestic opportunity but also as a global hub for healthcare services, medical value travel, digital innovation, and life sciences partnerships.
India’s medical devices industry is rapidly evolving, currently valued at approximately USD 12 billion in 2023–24, and projected to expand to USD 50 billion by 2030—representing a striking and sustained growth trajectory As of now, 80–85% of medical devices used in India are imported, underscoring a critical dependency on international suppliers. However, thanks to initiatives like "Make in India," the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, and supportive national medical device policies, domestic production is gradually gaining strength, and large number of foreign medical device companies are investing in India.
