There are few 100’s of companies that are operating in India either has a distributor or manufacturer but might be only a couple of dozen companies are having a turn over more than $ 10 million.

Keeping a part of CRO & Clinical Research there are around 10K+ employees in this industry but there is no definite data in our hand from which we can conclude the exact numbers. For that it’s a herculean exercise which we have to perform to get the exact numbers wherein all companies should be transparent to share the employee strength as well as turn over too.
