French Firm Servier Drops Exclusive Deal For Selling High BP Drugs After Chemists' Pushback
Last Updated: After successful mediation by offline chemists, Servier promptly withdrew the agreement – which is seen as a positive step towards preserving the fairness of open trade practices. In a major development impacting the pharmaceutical distribution landscape in India, an Indian arm of French drugmaker Servier has officially withdrawn its exclusive distribution agreement for its anti-hypertensive product line, reverting to conventional distribution practices. The move comes after the apex lobby of offline chemists, All India Organisation of Chemists and Druggists (AIOCD), raised concerns, alleging the potential monopolistic implications of Servier's deal with Entero Healthcare, a supply chain specialist company. AIOCD represents more than 12 lakh chemists and distributors in India, pushing Servier to discontinue the arrangement of supplying certain products via Entero. The majority of the AIOCD's partners refused to sell the drugs sold by the French drugmaker. After facing industry pushback, in a letter dated May 26, 2025, Servier India informed its trade partners that it has 'discontinued exclusive distribution arrangement for anti-hypertensive range of products" with immediate effect. The letter has been seen by News18. This update follows a formal communication by AIOCD on May 28, addressing the issue. The letter detailed how many members of the organisation had expressed concerns over the exclusivity agreement, warning that it could lead to discriminatory trade practices, shortages in essential medications, and the formation of monopolistic structures within the pharmaceutical supply chain. AIOCD, in a letter, said that the organisation mediated with Servier to ensure a fair resolution. 'After successful mediation by AIOCD, the company has promptly withdrawn the said exclusive distribution agreement. This is a positive and encouraging step toward preserving the balance and fairness in our open trade practices," the letter read. The development is being seen as a victory for chemists and druggists across India, many of whom feared market distortions and reduced access to essential medicines due to exclusive arrangements. 'We have had fruitful discussions with AIOCD. Servier India is focused on improving patient access to our quality medicines. We will continue to engage constructively with all stakeholders," Aurelien Breton, managing director, Servier India told News18. Brenton told News18 that he is thankful to AIOCD 'for the constructive dialogue, which allowed us to resolve the matter amicably in the interest of the healthcare community and patients at large." 'Servier is a global pharmaceutical group governed by a nonprofit foundation, committed to making a meaningful social impact for patients and contributing to a sustainable world." Headquartered in France, Servier operates in around 140 countries. Sources close to the development told News18 that, 'Servier's management rushed the distributor appointment, with inadequate market assessment and due diligence. However, now, it has made right decision following the general rules of the Indian pharma trade market." First Published: June 02, 2025, 12:40 IST

Bank of Maharashtra to Crompton Greaves - Vinay Rajani of HDFC Sec suggests these 3 stocks to buy in the near-term
Stock market today: The Indian stock markets began the new week on a downbeat trend, influenced by global worries in spite of solid domestic GDP data. The benchmark indices fell as investor sentiment was affected by the renewed tariff threats from US President Donald Trump. At 12:34 IST, the Nifty 50 index was trading at 24,715 . 95, showing a drop of 35.70 points or 0.15%. Sensex was trading lower at 81,325.42, decreasing by 125.59 points or 0.15%. This pressure emerged following Trump's announcement to modify tariffs on steel and aluminum, which has rekindled fears of a trade conflict and economic pressures. Market analysts pointed out that although India's macroeconomic fundamentals are robust, as demonstrated by the strong GDP figures, the external challenges posed by the US tariff adjustments have overshadowed domestic gains. The potential for a broader impact on global trade and capital movements has led investors to exercise caution. Vinay Rajani of HDFC Securities recommends Bank of Maharashtra, Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals Ltd, and City Union Bank Ltd. Check out his overall market views. Nifty 50 continued its consolidation for the second consecutive week with a weekly fall of 0.41%. Bank Nifty managed to outperform Nifty 50 with a gain of 0.33% and closed at an all-time high. Sectoral indices like PSU Bank, Capital market and Defense outperformed the benchmark with the weekly gain of 4.08%, 3.35% and 2.73% respectively. Indices like FMCG, tourism, and commodities underperformed by falling 2.16%, 1.90% and 1.61% respectively. The Nifty Microcap250 index rose 1.47% and managed to outperform Nifty 50 with a good margin. Nifty 50 has been protecting its level above 20 days EMA and SMA, placed 20,630 and 20,692 respectively. A level above all key moving averages indicates a bullish trend on all time frames for Nifty 50. Any level above 25,116 would confirm the bullish breakout from the consolidation. The lower band of the consolidation is placed near 24,400 levels, below which short term would turn bearish. Above 25,116, Nifty 50 could move towards immediate resistance of 25,300 odd levels, which happens to be 78.6% retracement of the entire fall seen from all time high of 26277 to recent swing low of 21743. Above 25300, We expect Nifty 50 to hit a new all-time high above 26277 and go beyond. Midcap and Microcap indices have been showing strength, which shows the strong breadth in the market. The Bank Nifty index has closed at fresh all-time highs with recent outperformance. Both PSU and Private bank stocks are looking strong on the chart and likely to take a lead in the coming sessions. Nifty Capital Market index has given a fresh breakout above its previous all-time highs. Considering the momentum and the chart setup, this index is likely to extend its gain in the coming days. Ratio Chart of Copper v/s Gold indicates that Copper should start outperforming gold from here for the medium to long term. Historically, Copper used to have a positive correlation with equity markets. Primary trend is bullish but short-term consolidation is going on in the Nifty 50. Traders should continue to hold on to the long positions with 24,462 stoploss in the Nifty 50. Any level above 25,116 will confirm the fresh bullish breakout. Above 25,116, we can expect Nifty 50 to extend the rise towards 25,300. Above 25,300 Nifty 50 could register fresh all-time highs.
