About Wholesale Drug LICENSE

In India a business of drugs or cosmetics in India without an appropriate license is obtained for the conduct of such activity. This license in India is granted by the competent authority under the drug and cosmetic act 1940.

Drug control organization issues two types of license, out of which one is Retail Drug License (RDL) to run a chemist shop. It is issued to only those persons who possess a degree or diploma in pharmacy from a recognized university. And other is Wholesale Drug License (WDL) which is issued to a person who is engaged in the business of wholesale drugs and medicines.

A wholesaler of the Drug must possess a wholesale Drug licence. Wholesale means sale to a person to further sell it; thus, the purchaser of these drugs must have either a wholesale or retail sale drug Licence. Wholesale may opt for Third party manufacturing, or Marketing Rights to prescribe or refer through Retails & Doctors. Third-party manufacturing means the drugs manufactured by a licenced manufacturer per its client’s requirement, i.e. Wholesaler. Such a manufacturer will require a brand affidavit before manufacturing any medicine under the brand name of Wholesaler. The product package will bear the manufacturer( Marketed by) and the Wholesaler (Marketed by-). If a client places a requirement for which needs the approval of the Drug controlling authority, the manufacturer is to take such approval before manufacturing those drugs.
