Road Ahead
Cachet is extremely optimistic and certain that, by 2023-24, it will be a Top 50 Company in Prescription and Value, having consistently raised its Pharma ranking in recent years. The firm has already made a name for itself in pain treatment, gastroenterology, and antibiotics, and its newly launched drugs have made a lot of buzz. Cachet is confident that anticipated results will be achieved with the appropriate intention and focused direction. Everyone in the Corporate Office, Field, Depot, and Factory is ready to take on the challenge of a highly competitive market and together lead Cachet to the top.
Indranil Chakravartty, Chief Operating Officer concludes “The idea of elevating the manual processes with the latest technology framework resulted in enhanced outputs, reduced manual work dependency, and minimized the turnaround time of deliveries. Cachet looks for value on an ongoing basis instead of a one-time cost reduction drive. This has helped the company to focus beyond price reductions to generating value for what we deliver”.
Indranil Chakravartty - Chief Operating Officer
The formation of a truly great commercial organization needs experience, entrepreneurship, innovation, and a can do belief. Working in two different Pharma Setups, Indian(Alkem, Glenmark, Wockhardt) and MNC(Pfizer) has helped me build my core competency in Marketing and Sales as well as other core functions. Managing different roles and two mega-mergers within the same organization has meant ensuring high performance with high levels of effectiveness as well as expertise in change management. The responsibility of building and handling mega brands, and launching brands have successfully provided me with experience in brand management and Key Opinion Leaders management. My experience in various organizations of different sizes and varied cultures has provided me with an in-depth understanding of the Pharma industry and of working in different cultural setups.
