India’s Pharmaceutical Sector Enters a New Growth Phase Through Affordable Medicines and Self-Reliance

A key pillar of this transformation is the expansion of the Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Pariyojana. The number of Jan Aushadhi Kendras has increased from around 84 centres in 2014 to more than 19,200 centres across the country in 2026.

The programme has also helped citizens save more than ₹40,000 crore on healthcare expenses.
