Maharashtra FDA permanently cancels Pune-based pharma firm’s license over six contaminated medicines, GMP lapses

The Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Thursday (August 6, 2026) permanently cancelled the Ayurvedic medicine manufacturing license of Pune-based InduCare Pharma Pvt. Ltd. after six medicines failed quality tests, with some found contaminated with fungi, insects and larvae, and widespread Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) violations.

This action was taken after the manufacturing facility was inspected twice. The inspection revealed incomplete manufacturing records, poor hygiene, inadequate quality-control systems and the omission of ingredients specified in approved Ayurvedic formulations, according to the press release. The FDA said these violated provisions of the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940, Rules, 1945, and GMP requirements.
