A round 36 per cent of the pharmaceutical manufacturing units inspected by the Indian drug regulator in recent times were forced to shut down due to non-compliance with quality standards, a senior government official said here.
The Central Drug Standards Control Organisation (CDSCO) has been conducting risk-based inspections of manufacturing facilities since December 2022.
Speaking at the Indian Pharmaceutical Alliance's (IPA) Global Pharmaceutical Quality Summit, 2024, Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) Rajeev Raghuvanshi said that about 400-odd units were inspected and nearly 36 per cent had to be closed as they failed to meet the standards.
"Of those who had to temporarily shut down, around 10 per cent of the units were permanently moved out of the system as they realised they would not be able to comply with the quality standards. The remaining came back with corrective and preventive action plans," Raghuvanshi said, adding that the move helped in getting rid of the sub-standard facilities.
