Pharma Sector on a Turnaround, Shows Signs of Booming

Pharma SectorIn March 2009, the Pharma Index was trading at 2020. For the next 6 years until March 2015, Pharma had a continued rally to make a high of 14,020. Thereafter in March 2016, the Pharma Index witnessed highest correction in 7 years to make a low of 10,353. Currently it stands at 11,100.
The Pharma Sector has been all-time performer. However, the recent USFDA inspections have caused a few hiccups leading to correction. As most Pharma companies export in bulk and Rupee is currently at its all-time low (Dollar appreciation against Rupee), the Pharma sector has witnessed buying and profitability.
