Covering the entire pharmaceutical supply chain—from APIs, formulations, excipients, and fine chemicals to packaging, machinery, lab equipment, cleanroom technology, and contract services—the event will once again position India as a global hub for pharma innovation and manufacturing excellence.
Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director of Informa Markets in India, said, “The Indian pharmaceutical sector has evolved into a world-class ecosystem known for affordable generics, innovative R&D, and global healthcare contributions. With the government increasing its 2025–26 budget allocation for the Department of Pharmaceuticals by nearly 29% to ₹5,268 crore, there is renewed momentum in research, infrastructure, and capacity building. CPHI & PMEC India 2025 will serve as the ideal platform to accelerate collaboration, strengthen industry linkages, and build partnerships that define the future of Indian pharma.”
