Made in India is an inspiring and deeply insightful account of how Desh Bandhu Gupta transformed a modest beginning in Rajasthan into one of India’s most influential pharmaceutical companies, Lupin
. The book not only traces Gupta’s entrepreneurial journey through financial struggles, regulatory hurdles, and industry competition, but also highlights how Indian pharma companies collectively changed global access to affordable medicine.

Written with honesty and realism, the book goes beyond a typical business success story. It explores leadership, resilience, family support, ethical challenges, and the evolution of India into the “pharmacy of the world.” It also sheds light on the contributions of key Indian pharma pioneers who helped establish India as a global leader in generics and vaccine manufacturing.
A compelling read for entrepreneurs, healthcare professionals, business students, and anyone interested in India’s economic and industrial transformation.
