Trump asks 17 non-Indian drug majors to cut prices in US; Nifty pharma dips
Mumbai: A letter from US President Donald Trump has asked 17 global drug giants to cut their prices in the country, sparking severe losses for them, as its impact hit the Indian stock market too. The letter urged that these businesses cut US drug pricing to match prices in other developed markets. Though no Indian pharmaceutical companies received Trump's letters, the Nifty Pharma index reacted sharply, falling 2.45 per cent during the intra-day trade on Friday. The index fell for the third day in a row. Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd fell 3.98 per cent. Aurobindo Pharma lost 3.42 per cent and Granules India lost 3.2 per cent. Gland Pharma, Cipla, and Lupin fell 2 to 3 per cent. The US President wrote to 17 of the world's major pharmaceutical corporations, pressing them to lower drug prices immediately and give assurance that future drugs will be priced in line with other countries. The letters were sent to Eli Lilly, Novo Nordisk, Pfizer, and others, seeking 'Most Favoured Nation' (MFN) pricing for US within 60 days. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said recent data showed that Americans paid more than three times more for brand-name drugs than other developed nations. Trump had earlier made a similar announcement on May 12, asking pharma companies to cut prices in US. Industry sources in India had then said Trump's proposal might hurt Indian exporters of branded generics to the US, given generic drugs are already sold at low prices. If prices are cut further, it will make shipping unviable, they said. A third of Indian pharmaceutical exports of $30 billion annually, reach the US market. Trump gave drug companies 60 days to voluntarily comply with the new pricing diktat in the letter, failing which, he said, the US would use 'every tool in our arsenal' to protect Americans from 'continued abusive drug pricing' practices. Trump's letter required companies to sell certain drugs directly to patients at prices at which they are offered to third-party insurers.

Indian imports bill could rise buy $14 billion after stopping Russian oil imports
If India were to stop buying Russian crude oil, Indian imports bill could rise by up to $14 billion as a result of expensive imports from elsewhere. But the true impact on India —and Western nations as well— could be larger as India's purchase of Russian oil has kept international prices low so far. read more Fuga Bluemarine crude oil tanker lies at anchor near the terminal Kozmino in Nakhodka Bay near the port city of Nakhodka, Russia. India's imports bill could rise by up to $14 billion after stopping Russian crude oil imports. In addition to slapping India with 25 per cent tariff, US President Donald Trump has threatened additional penalties over the trade with Russia, mainly the purchase of Russian oil — India has bought discounted Russian oil since Russia launched the war on Ukraine in 2022. The true cost of India replacing Russian oil imports in the wake of Trump's threats would be much higher than $14 billion for India and the world. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The true cost of replacing Russian oil for India — and the world India stopping the purchase of Russian oil could raise the price of oil by up to $10 per barrel, raising the country's import bill by around $13-14 billion, according to Prashant Vasisht, the Senior Vice President and Co-Group Head of Corporate Ratings at ICRA. Vasisht suggested the true cost could be higher as prices of gas and other petroleum products and derivatives will also rise. 'Additionally, domestic gas and LNG imports linked to dated Brent prices would also become dearer thereby impacting all gas consumers such as fertiliser, city gas distribution etc. A $10/barrel increase in Brent prices could increase the cost of LNG purchased annually under the RasGas contract by Rs 3,900 crore,' Vasisht told The Financial Express. Between May 2022-2025, India saved around $17.2 billion with the purchase of discounted Russian oil, according to ICRA's calculations. However, that may now change — and not just for India. With the purchase of discounted Russian oil, India and China have so far stabilised oil prices in the international market by absorbing Russian over-supply and easing the pressure on global prices. But, if and when India would stop importing Russian oil, the competition for non-Russian oil would rise and prices will rise as demand will rise in proportion to supply. Western nations will also feel the pinch. Firstly, prices of oil will also rise for them owing to greater demand and limited supply of non-Russian oil. Secondly, since 2022, Indian refiners had been processing Russian crude and selling finished products to Western nations at cheaper rates. As such discounted purchases would end, their bills will rise as well.
