As per the report, the APIs market is fuelled by the rising abbreviated new drug applications and the increasing drug master file filing via Indian companies. The prime opportunity seen in the market is the patent expiry of promising biological drugs. On the other hand, factors such as the stringent European Union regulatory policies will impede the growth of the APIs market in the coming years.

On the basis of type of manufacturing, the market is segmented into API contract manufacturing and captive or in-house API manufacturing. Amongst these, the segment of captive or in-house API manufacturing is experiencing a rapid decline in the market for APIs owing to its lack of profitability for the manufacturer and rising degree of competition in the market. Pharmaceutical companies are inclined towards API contract manufacturing rather than in-house API manufacturing owing to the increasing costs of research and development and the pressure to maintain low prices of finished goods. Thus, outsourcing of API production is increasingly being preferred by manufacturers.

On the basis of type of API, the market is segmented into biological APIs and synthetic chemical APIs. Amongst these, the segment of biological APIs is experiencing the most significant growth rate owing to the huge number of pharmaceutical companies involved in this segment.
