India's national drug regulator under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act 1940 and Rules 1945. It sets the rules; state licensing authorities issue most manufacturing and sale licences.

  • A pharmacy or drug sale needs a licence from your state drug controller under these rules.
  • New drugs, imports and medical devices go through CDSCO itself.
  • Read the Act and Rules for your licence form before you lease premises.
