A Drug License is a prerequisite for any enterprise that manufactures, wholesales or retails, distributes, or imports/exports drugs and pharmaceutical products. In India, the license is issued by the Drugs Control Department under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940. The following typically require a Drug License:
Pharmaceutical Manufacturers: Any company or individual manufacturing drugs, including generic drugs, active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), or formulations.
Pharmaceutical Distributors:
People who purchase drugs from manufacturers, sell them to retail pharmacy shops, hospitals, and health care providers need a Drug License.
Retail Pharmacies & Medical Stores:
Any shop selling prescription medications, over the counter or drugs, health supplements in need of a retail drug license.
Online Pharmacies:
E-commerce websites or portals selling drugs must have a Drug License as per the guidelines of the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO).
Drug Importers & Exporters:
Drug importers and exporters must have a Drug License to ensure that they are in compliance with the regulatory requirements.
Hospitals & Clinics:
Hospitals, clinics, and health centers that purchase and dispense drugs also need a Drug License to ensure that they are in compliance with the laws on drug handling.
At Ad Deals Legal Services, we walk business through the process of obtaining a drug license effectively and efficiently. Here’s how we do it:

Our legal experts are here to consult on what type of drug license will be suitable for your business needs-whether you will need retail, wholesale, manufacturing, or import/export licenses. We’ll guide you as to which license will work best for you and how all the drug sales and trading regulations of India function.

We help you in gathering all the documents needed for the application process. This will include:
Business registration
Premises details for retail and wholesale licenses
A qualified pharmacist for retail pharmacy or manufacturing

We process your application and ensure all regulatory standards for the submission of your application to the State Drugs Control Authority or Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) are met. Our teams directly contact the government authorities concerned in order to resolve all queries or concerns.
Renewal License Support
We also help with the renewal process of Drug Licenses so that you know when your renewal is and thus ensure that your license stays active, which would prevent your business from coming to a halt.

The time taken to receive a drug license varies with the type of license and business complexity. Generally, for a retail drug license, it may take about 2-4 weeks if everything is ready.
Wholesale drug license: A minimum of 3-6 weeks, depending upon inspection and approval by a local Drugs Control Authority.
Manufacture Drug License: 1-3 months. It is more of an extensive search and inspection process on the manufacturing sites and quality control.
Import/Export Drug License: This would take 1-2 months depending on the scope of the application and compliance checks.
These timeframes vary with the workload of the local authority and the regulatory procedure.
