10 When the shoe doesn t fit anymore: India's biggest challenge is its infrastructure deficit India is suffering a shortfall of $500 billion in the infrastructure sector and is in urgent need of capital Page 9 from: Ian Gomes, KPMG International 2007

11 And some shibboleths of Indian economic orthodoxy... The fear of the foreigner Fear to permit a modern market economy The obsession with small-scale enterprise Fear to open and scale up Indian agriculture Dogged refusal to recognize the benefits of an economy of scale Page 10

12 Retail in India a long story short Page 11

13 Retail in India Rough estimated in USD Billion, India retail is the 5th in in the world and one of the pillars of the country s economy and representing ~15% of the GDP. From now on? Last month, New Delhi finally said foreign companies can own up to 51 per cent of multi-brand retail businesses, a potentially transformative decision in a country where modern stores ring up just 6 per cent of total sales. The government also relaxed sourcing rules to make it more viable for singlebrand retailers to set up their own stores. But international retailers are still expected to proceed cautiously, given the complex, uncertain policy environment, with still entrenched political opposition to foreign-owned stores Page 12 ft.com: By Amy Kazmin in New Delhi October

18 Supplements: some facts and figures In 2010, the Indian supplements or nutraceutical consumption was estimated in ~$2 billion, roughly 1.5 per cent of the global nutraceutical industry. 40% Dietary Supplements and Functional Food 60% Functional Beverages Nutraceuticals market is expected to reach $5 billion by provided some legislation adjustments

19 Notes on FSSAI rules Before May 2011: no formal process for Nutraceuticals... import was relatively easy. May 5th 2011: Food Safety & Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) issued regulations on Operation and import licensing Manufacture, packing and labeling and registration of food products Food products standards and approved additives etc. FSSAI provides one single legislation and authority to regulate manufacture, sale and distribution of food, functional food, nutraceuticals and dietary supplement in India. Grey areas and some confusion is still in place in the FSSAI, mostly, due to lack of clarity of specific regulations for supplements, functional ingredients and some additives

20 FSSAI challenges for the supplements industry 1. All drugs defined on 1940 Drugs and Cosmetics Act and also Indian traditional medicine as Ayurvedic, Siddha and Unani are excluded from the definition of supplement under FSSAI. Regulatory officers are categorizing nutraceuticals, especially those manufactured on traditional Galenic forms like tablets, capsules or oral dosages as Rx drugs 2. Some commonly used colours and additives such as binding agents, granulating agents used in formulating tablets do not find place in the list of permitted food additives under the regulations 3. Though functional claims are permitted, there is no clarity on the permitted structure of functional claims for nutraceuticals and dietary supplements. From Dr. R. B. Smarta, Regulatory Perspective of Nutraceuticals in India. Interlink Marketing Consultancy Pvt. Ltd. Dec 2011.

21 Some unpractical implications Approval of Nutraceuticals, Supplements as well as their ingredients under food category, will take from 1-2 years. Approval apply for finished products ingredients/additives for which there are no standards in the regulations. Vitamins, minerals and most common used nutritional or nutraceutical ingredients are registered with Drug Authority for Pharma use... but any new registration may takes months A product containing additives which are not mentioned in the standards of a particular finished product will also need approval. Time is longer for new ingredients or new to the country ingredients. Regulations in India are getting very much streamlined and in the years to come would be harmonized with the global ones to facilitate international trade.

22 What can we expect There is enough lobbying going on to, hasten the process. New regulations on Nutraceuticals is expected to provide a clearer picture for Food Supplements and for Health claims in it would be necessary to amend Schedule K of the Drugs and Cosmetics Rules, 1945 to provide for specific exemption to nutraceuticals, dietary supplements, health supplements from the scope of Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 and Rules, 1945*. 2. It is also necessary to have specific regulations for product approval, approval of claims, permitted additives, quantity of vitamins and minerals etc. for nutraceuticals as it is necessary to treat this segment as an independent and unique entity under the Food Safety Standard Act, 2006* Regulations in India are getting streamlined and in the years to come are expected to be harmonized with the global ones to facilitate international trade. *From Dr. R. B. Smarta, Regulatory Perspective of Nutraceuticals in India. Interlink Marketing Consultancy Pvt. Ltd. Dec 2011.

24 DSM as a solution provider in India DSM imports to India under 2 categories; Food and Parma; but also source nutritional ingredients from various, properly audited, Indian manufactures. Pharma Regulations are well in placed and not much changes took place, except for stricter enforcement. Product registration takes is ~1 year and we support our customers with the documentation needed for regulatory submission. Food and supplements. Enforcement of FSSAI is strict. Customs is strict on sampling and labeling criteria. Licensing and Registration is mandatory for approval of products and ingredients new to the country and for which standards are not well defined. Import VS local manufacturing: importing RM or buying ingredients locally for manufacturing in India might help to reduce time and cost. DSM works closely with industry associations and authorities in India. We are also working to support harmonization of Indian standards to facilitate international trade. DSM can source, document, analyze and blend approved nutritional ingredients for the Supplements and Functional Foods industry in our new plant located in Baroda, Gujarat
