Detailed reasons for delay:

  • a. The construction activities along with installation of necessary plant and machinaries required for smooth operation has been completed by the Unit. Also, they have applied to USFDA for product approval with a renewal fee up to 31.12.2021. However, due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, the inspection got delayed and they are expecting the surprise inspection anytime shortly. They are hopeful that after COVID-19 pandemic, the Regulatory Authority will visit their plant and accordingly, they will start their commercial production

6

in due course. Furthermore, they are also in process for statutory licenses and approvals of the respective countries.

  • b. On scrutiny of the application, it is observed that the construction work has been completed in the year 2019 itself and the commercial production is pending only for want of approval of the Regulatory Authorities. As such, there is no change in the status as compared to last two years.

Details from CE’s Certificate:

  • a. Approved area as per the approved plan : 22382 sq.mtr. b. Constructed area so far : 22382 :sq.mtr. c. Incremental area constructed since last extension of LoA : Nil

  • d. Area of difference in % - Nil (Construction completed in last extension of LoA)

  • e. Materials used are of approved quality

  • f. All structural work including brick walls, roofing plastering etc. are being implemented to satisfaction.

Specified Officer’s Report:

The Specified Officer in his report dated 04.12.2018 had already stated that on physical inspection of the site it was observed that the construction work (22382 sq. mtr) is already complete and the unit has installed the machinery procured through import and DTA procurement.

The construction work has already been completed and the delay in starting of operation is on account of site inspection pending by US-FDA.
