In Ranbaxy

Many Indian companies that perform well in domestic markets have not yet
expanded to the International arena. Several factors such as lack of confidence,
lack of technical know how and perhaps lack of resources inhibit leading Indian
groups to expand their area of activities to other parts of the world. HRM can play
a crucial role in changing the attitude of the company and its employees in order to
facilitate entry and presence in the foreign markets. This is effectively illustrated in the case of
the Indian pharmaceutical giant RANBAXY which succeeded in
expanding its business internationally due to the single-handed determination of its past CEO,
Dr. Parvinder Singh, and the manner in which he managed to change the mindset of his
employees

projects to realize synergies at both the front and back ends of the business,

projected to grow at around 5% in 2009.

opportunities in India, emerging and developed markets to strengthen its business and
