India to Australia: Irbesartan Export Trade Route

The India to Australia Irbesartan corridor is one of India's established pharmaceutical export routes, with 226 shipments documented worth a combined $8.4M USD. The route is dominated by ALEMBIC PHARMACEUTICALS LIMITED, which alone accounts for roughly 50% of all export value, reflecting the consolidated nature of India's irbesartan manufacturing sector.

Across 9 active suppliers, the average shipment value stands at $37.1K USD — a figure that reflects both bulk commercial orders from large pharmaceutical companies and smaller specialty shipments. Sea freight dominates at 79% of all shipments, consistent with irbesartan's non-urgent bulk-order profile.

Shipment activity peaks during January–March, with an average transit time of 22 days port-to-port. The route has recorded an annual growth rate of 19.5%, placing it at rank #8 among India's top irbesartan export destinations globally.

On the import side, key buyers of Indian irbesartan in Australia include APOTEX PTY LTD., APOTEX PTY. LTD. , APOTEX PTY LTD and 21 others. APOTEX PTY LTD. is the single largest importer with 49 shipments valued at $2.8M USD.

India's irbesartan exports to Australia are driven primarily by a handful of large-scale manufacturers. ALEMBIC PHARMACEUTICALS LIMITED with 90 shipments leads the pack, a pattern common in generic pharmaceutical corridors where manufacturing scale creates significant cost advantages. The presence of 9 active exporters signals a competitive but concentrated market — buyers in Australia benefit from supplier diversity while the top tier handles the majority of volume.

The top 3 suppliers — ALEMBIC PHARMACEUTICALS LIMITED, ALEMBIC PHARMACEUTICALS LIMITED , SUN PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES LIMITED — together account for 89% of total trade value on this route. The average shipment value of $37.1K USD reflects a mix of bulk commercial orders and smaller specialty shipments.

Beyond the primary product category, shipments on this route include closely related formulations such as irbesartan tablets 150 mg (976350 tabs) and irbesartan tablets 300 mg , suggesting that buyers in Australia tend to consolidate orders across related product lines from the same Indian supplier.

On the buying side, APOTEX PTY LTD. is the largest importer with 49 shipments worth $2.8M USD — representing 33% of all irbesartan imports from India on this route. A total of 24 buyers are active on this corridor.
