The market has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. During the COVID-19 pandemic, global the market was severely affected due to supply chain distribution, which has certainly affected the market growth to a major extent. Since China and India are key nations involved in the production of API, the market was severely hampered as COVID-19 increased in the region. According to the Germany Trade & Invest (GTAI) article titled "Covid-19 Fuels Debate over API Production Locations" published in April 2020, around 60% of APIs, including high-potency APIs of the world, are manufactured in India or China. India alone accounts for 18% of the global generic drug manufacturing market, most of which is exported to other countries. China is a major manufacturing location and produces 70% of the APIs, including high-potency APIs, for India's generics industry. This situation makes these two countries the biggest players in the global market for generic medicines. However, these countries were the most affected by the pandemic. As the virus spread globally, India temporarily placed an export curb on 26 drugs and various high-potent APIs, which accounted for around 10% of the country's pharmaceutical exports, to avoid domestic shortages. This factor further negatively impacted the growth of market. However, once the situation improves, the production, supply chains and demand for APIs is anticipated to gradually increase as various industries develop. This is expected to provide lucrative growth opportunities foe key players operating in the market in the upcoming years.
