SPIL was one of the leading companies in the Indian pharmaceutical industry. It was also the first Indian pharmaceutical company to focus and sell drugs that treated life style segments. It reached a leadership position in each of the therapeutic areas it operated in. The company had used both organic and inorganic growth strategies to grow domestically and internationally. The case offers insights into the growth strategies that SPIL adopted to become one of the leading pharmaceutical companies in India and how it wanted to reposition itself in the post 2005 product patent regime.
