We trace why the drug ran out of India's easiest customers within months, why its next move — into Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities — might not work either, and what it would actually take to sell a $200-a-month injection in a country that's only now starting to believe that obesity is a disease.Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India’s first subscriber-only business news platform.
