The FDA seized stock valued at ₹11.19 lakh and mandated a recall, citing breaches of the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940, and Rules, 1945. Additional irregularities were found in storage, distribution, and record-keeping practices. FDA Commissioner Tukaram Mundhe emphasized the importance of strict compliance with legal standards to ensure drug safety and public health.
