Description

Why Do You Need a Drug Licence?

Operating without a valid drug license is not just risky, it’s illegal. The Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940, regulates the manufacture, sale, stocking, distribution, and import-export of drugs and cosmetics in India. To legally run any enterprise dealing with medicinal products, you must comply with state and central regulations. The rationale is clear: drugs affect human health and safety. The government must maintain rigorous oversight to prevent counterfeit, adulterated, or substandard medicines from entering the supply chain. A drug license in Lucknow ensures your business is recognised, permitted, and legally sound in Uttar Pradesh.

Business Credibility, Market Access & Avoiding Penalties

Having a legitimate drug licence registration carries multiple advantages:

  • Credibility & trust: Customers, suppliers, and hospitals prefer to engage with licensed entities.

  • Access to tenders & institutional supply: Government, hospitals, and clinics often insist on valid licence documents.

  • Compliance & continuity: Avoid fines, seizures, legal action, or business shutdowns.

  • Growth readiness: A properly licensed entity can scale, expand services, or obtain further regulatory approvals.

Without a license, your business is vulnerable to penalties or forced closure. In Uttar Pradesh, violations under drug laws draw severe consequences
