body can give only to an applicant who has a clear intention of employing the
producing facilities possessed by a licensee under the form 25 A. please note

body.
Manufacture
and Import of Drugs
According to the rules and regulation “no new drug shall be
imported or manufactured for sale until and unless it is approved by the
licensing authority “(which includes a fixed combination of more than two drugs
). Government has defined the term ‘new drug’ under the rule 122E . according
to rule 122E a new drug should be
considered for 4 years to be considered a new drug from the date of its approval .
To approve manufacturing and drugs’ import , CDSCO is the
primary body responsible behind it . If any person wants to import drugs to
India , he or she needs to get a Registration Certificate and import license
from the licensing body in a legal manner specified under Part-4 of the law .
All the rules and regulations are not only subjected to drugs , they are
applied to manufacturing sites based overseas as well .
License
to stock, sell, exhibit or offer for sale or distribute the drugs.
State drugs authorities are the responsible body to provide licenses to people or entities who want to
sell or distribute drugs . Retail drug license , wholesale drug license and
restricted license are the categories in which licenses related to sell and distribution
of drugs are categorized . but every license comes with certain prerequisites.
So every entity holding license needs to take care of such prerequisites during
carrying license . If an entity fails to follow the conditions of license ,
then the licensing body holds the power to suspend or cancel under different
laws and regulations . be careful during this period and entities should note
that if there is any change in the structure of the entity carrying the license
, they should update the government body about it in writing. After the change
in entity license will be valid for maximum 3 months from the date the change
took place.
Conclusion
Before entering into the Indian pharmaceutical industry they should take care of terms and conditions of
laws and regulation related to this industry . an entity should be careful
about the prospective drug whether it is
even qualified as a drug or new drug as there are several different sets of
rules and methodologies for drugs . There are different rules behind the
license renewal which varies according to drug . For example, if an application
for the recharging of a medication fabricating permit is made before its expiry
or if the application is made inside a half year of its expiry (after
installment of extra expenses), the permit keeps on being in power until orders
are passed on the application.
