In a major crackdown in India, manufacturing has been halted in at least 40 pharmaceutical companies, followed by the suspension or cancellation of licenses for 66 other firms, following a risk-based assessment of 162 drug firms.

Indian Minister of Health Mansukh Mandaviya informed Parliament that a First Information Report (FIR) has also been filed in one of the cases. An FIR is prepared by the police when they receive information about the commission of a cognisable offence.

Following inspections by the Central Drug Standard Control Organization (CDSCO), 21 warning letters have also been issued.
