A Drug License is a mandatory legal permit required to sell, distribute, or manufacture medicines in Delhi. It is issued under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 by the Drugs Control Department, Delhi.
There are different types of licenses depending on the nature of the business:
Retail Drug License (RDL) – For pharmacies selling to the public
Wholesale Drug License (WDL) – For bulk sales to hospitals or retailers
Manufacturing License – For production of drugs or cosmetics
To apply, the business must have a qualified pharmacist, compliant premises, and adequate storage facilities. Applications are submitted online via the e-District Portal, and approval typically includes site inspection.
Common documents include ID proof, pharmacist qualification, premises proof, and GST certificate. License validity is generally 5 years, with renewal required before expiry.
Operating without a valid license can result in fines, legal action, or business closure.
