Nifty Pharma Companies FAQs

Intro:

Pharmaceuticals sector is one of the key sectors where Indian companies have created a global brand for themselves besides software. Indian companies have taken advantage of the opportunities in the regulated generics market in the western countries and made deep inroads especially in providing low cost equivalents of expensive drugs. In addition, the inherent potential of biotechnology has also attracted many new companies and this is also a key growth area for Indian companies. NSE Indices has developed Nifty Pharma Index to capture the performance of the companies in this sector.
