The classification of medical devices rules along with regulatory approval and registration by the CDSCO is under the control of Drug Controller General of India (DCGI). All medical devices in India follow a regulatory framework that is based on the drug regulations under the Drugs and Cosmetic Act (1940) and Drugs and Cosmetic Rules (1945).

The Health Ministry of India has published new Medical Device and IVD regulations to enhance the country’s Drugs and Cosmetics Act for creating effective regulations. The government has notified Medical Devices Rules, 2017 on 31.01.2017 and it will come into force on January 1, 2018. The suggested medical device rules necessary for regulatory approval impact of the Medical device and IVD sector.

New Medical Devices Rules India, 2017 -Key Features for Regulatory approvals and Registrations:

  • It will be for the first time that there will be no requirement of periodic renewal of licenses/registrations. Accordingly, manufacturing and import licences will remain valid till these are suspended or cancelled or surrendered.
  • Further, the entire process starting from submission of application to grant of permission/licence will be processed through online electronic platform.
  • The registration document review, submission & tracking have become much simpler, efficient & transparent with the SUGAM system.
  • Timelines have been defined for most activities at the regulators end.
  • The new Rules “Medical Devices Rules, 2017”will help in developing quality standardization in the regulations of framework at par with international standards.
  • It has been made easier to apply for change notifications once the registrations certificate is obtained. This can be done in the section “Post Approval Change”.

Regulatory approvals mechanism: 

The new regulations will balance the usage of medical devices rules with International standards so as to smoothen manufacturing & importing of medical devices. National Medical Device Authority will receive authorization to promote the local medical device sector which includes safety standards, specific price limits, price control policy for surgical instruments.

At present there are 22 notified Medical devices under the Drugs & Cosmetics Act, 1940, and need to be registered with the CDSCO (Regulatory Body of India).
