CHAPTER-2
Introduction of the Project
DCM Shriram is a diversified manufacturing company based in India with a portfolio of products comprising
of sugar, alcohol, fine chemicals, industrial fibers, Defense and engineering products. The company has a
strong emphasis on technology and quality as also a strong commitment to environmental & social concerns.
Project Proponent
The unit is planning to have total production capacity 24150 TPA (Synthetic Organic Chemicals) to meet the
rising export as well as domestic demand of the products with state-of-the-art environment friendly
technology. The project falls under category “B1” as per EIA Notification 2006.
The unit is going to develop a research-driven, global, integrated pharmaceutical company with presence
across Generics, Specialty and OTC business. All efforts are focused on discovering innovative molecules to
address the ever-evolving needs of patients and providing effective medicines to enable people to lead fuller,
healthier and happier lives. The unit will offer its customers a comprehensive and customized package of API
with IP and regulatory support.
2.3 Need for the project and its importance to the country and or region
India's chemical industry is the third largest in the world in terms of volume and ranks 14th in terms of value.
However, India lags far behind US and China mainly due to smaller scale of operations and various regulatory
restrictions in catching opportunities when thrown before entrepreneurs. It is objective of our Government to
improve ease of doing business and increase India’s contribution in World’s GDP which in turn improve
standard of living of our population.
Recently 40% of chemicals units in China were abruptly closed by Chinese Govt. due to their poor
infrastructure and polluting operations. That has been a great interruption for downstream consumers not only
in US, Europe and Japan but also in India and China itself. World is now looking to India to fulfil the vacuum
and be a permanent second source / alternative to Chinese manufacturers keeping in mind uncertain
Government Policies in China.
This has now created a very interesting opportunity for Indian economy and it is our sincere effort to cash-in
the said once-in-blue-moon opportunity.
In addition, the Indian pharmaceutical industry currently tops the chart amongst India's science- based
industries with wide ranging capabilities in the complex field of drug manufacture and technology. A highly
organized sector, the Indian pharmaceutical industry is estimated to be worth $ 4.5 billion, growing at about
8 to 9 percent annually. It ranks very high amongst all the third world countries, in terms of technology,
quality and the vast range of medicines that are manufactured. It ranges from simple headache pills to
sophisticated antibiotics and complex cardiac compounds; almost every type of medicine is now made in the
Indian pharmaceutical industry.
The Indian pharmaceutical sector is highly fragmented with more than 20,000 registered units. It has
expanded drastically in the last two decades. The Pharmaceutical and Chemical industry in India is an
extremely fragmented market with severe price competition and government price control. The
Pharmaceutical industry in India meets around 70% of the country's demand for bulk drugs, drug
intermediates, pharmaceutical formulations, chemicals, tablets, capsules, orals and injectable. There are
approximately 250 large units and about 8000 Small Scale Units, which form the core of the pharmaceutical
industry in India (including 5 Central Public-Sector Units).
The Indian pharma industry, which is expected to grow over 18 per cent per annum between 2021 and 2024,
will outperform the global pharma industry, which is set to grow at an annual rate of 5 percent between the
same periods. The market is expected to grow to US$ 85 billion by 2024, thereby emerging as the sixth largest
pharmaceutical market globally by absolute size, as stated Indian Ambassador to the US. Branded generics
dominate the pharmaceuticals market, constituting nearly 83 per cent of the market share (in terms of
revenues).
India has also maintained its lead over China in pharmaceutical exports with a year- on-year growth of 11.44
per cent to US$ 12.91 billion in FY 2017-18, according to data from the Ministry of Commerce and Industry.
Imports of pharmaceutical products rose marginally by 0.80 per cent year-on-year to US$ 1,641.15 million.
Overall drug approvals given by the US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) to Indian companies have
nearly doubled to 201 in FY 2017-18 from 109 in FY 2016-17. The country accounts for around 30 per cent
(by volume) and about 10 per cent (value) in the US$ 70-80 billion US generics market.
The market is also benefitting from increasing influx of generic drugs that are produced following permission
of a pharmaceutical company for creating the own version of the medicine. The COVID-19 pandemic and
M/s. DCM Shriram Fine Chemicals Limited
the resulting disruptions in supply chain are driving various governments to boycott sourcing of APIs from
China. Despite these challenges, the API market is bound to progress ahead swiftly due to positive factors
like pending approval of various generic and blockbuster drugs that rely on APIs.

CHAPTER-9
Analysis of Proposal (Final Recommendations)
9.1 Financial and Social Benefits with Special Emphasis on the benefits to the local people Including
Tribal Population
The proposed project will result in improvement of infrastructure as well as upliftment of social structure in
the area. The people residing in the nearby areas will be benefited directly and indirectly. It is anticipated that
the proposed plant will provide benefits for the local people in two phases i.e., during construction phase as
well as during operational stage of the plant.
Construction Phase
Employment The major benefit due to the proposed project will be in the sphere of generating employment
for people of that area. The proposed project will benefit local population.
Operational Phase
Employment: The manpower requirements for the operational phase of the proposed project will be about
300 people. In addition, there will be an indirect employment for skilled/ semi-skilled people during project
life. All attempts will be made to employ suitable, locally available, skilled personnel from the nearby area.
Transportation: There will also be small increase in the vehicular traffic due to passenger transport. This
increase in traffic will not have any consequence to warrant special mention. One should expect that the
increased passenger load in the sector would prompt the state government/ private movers to start new and
frequent public transport services to this area, bringing upliftment to the whole locality.
