DSM Pharmaceutical Products (DPP) is to sell eight active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) manufactured by Indian firm Indoco Remedies of Mumbai, India, in a new agreement that is a step forward in DSM’s planned global expansion.

Indoco is active in forging such alliances and this one with DSM is a step in that direction.’
