Summary:

Indian Government has chosen to join the foray and ride the digital wave through SUGAM, launched on 14 November, 2015


With rapidly growing digitalization in the world of healthcare and its accessory outfits, the Indian Government has chosen to join the foray and ride the digital wave. As part of implementation of e-Governance, the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) has decided to improve the security for pre-registering the applicants for the services rendered by them. An online licensing portal of CDSCO has been launched on 14 November, 2015 and has been named “SUGAM”. It is a reliable, fast, and spam-free portal that has been launched by the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare.

In addition to importers and registration applicants, the authorized Indian agents and service providers, corporate and foreign enterprises holding Indian subsidiaries are also allowed to use this application portal. Another facility provided by this new online application system is the freedom to obtain the Whole Sale Drug License.
As per the Drug Controller General of India (DCGI), Dr. GN Singh, this online portal service has been communicated to all the state regulatory authorities as well as the pharmaceutical industry associations. The IT team of CDSCO will take care of all the verifications of information related to user profile as well as type of submission. The entire process has emerged as a complete, one-time process where applicants can continuously access their profile and the status of the application and can make the necessary amendments to their applications online.
Some states of India such as Karnataka, Gujarat are among the first ones that are already following such initiatives and exercising them with high transparency and efficiency. They are working a step ahead as compared to other states and are enjoying such portal facilities in their operation systems.
