Founder Speaks-

"Increase in acceptance of the generic medicines in India will be the largest enabler of growth. Currently, the penetration of generic medicines in India is only 5% and the same for developed nations like US is 80%, even for other developing nations like Brazil, the penetration of generic medicines is 23%. Credit should be given to the government for their constant push to increase awareness of generic medicines in the past few years through initiatives like Jan Ausadhi Yojna."
