DoP Shortlists Patented, Unlaunched Drugs for Global Tender Exemption, See Full List
PRIP Scheme
New Delhi: In a move that could significantly reshape India's pharmaceutical procurement landscape, the Department of Pharmaceuticals (DoP) has issued a public notice inviting objections from domestic manufacturers on the proposed inclusion of several patented, proprietary and high value formulations under the Global Tender Enquiry (GTE) exemption list.
The exercise stems from the Department of Expenditure’s January 2025 order that exempted 128 drugs and vaccines—up to Rs 200 crore—from the applicability of GTE under Rule 161 of the General Financial Rules (GFR) 2017, an exemption valid until March 31, 2027.
This extensive list represents the drugs and therapeutic products that various government agencies and industry bodies want to bring under the Global Tender Enquiry (GTE) exemption, meaning they could be procured without inviting international competitive bids—but only if there is no domestic manufacturer.
The Department has clarified that before granting GTE exemptions, it must ensure that no Indian manufacturer currently produces these formulations. To this end, the DoP has invited objections from domestic manufacturers, who may contest the inclusion of any drug by demonstrating local manufacturing capability.
"Against this backdrop, local manufacturers are hereby invited to submit objections (based on domestic manufacturing availability) against inclusion of any formulations listed at Annex A in the GTE exemption list, in the form set out at Annex B, by 05.12.2025 through email sent to SO PharmaPolicy@.pharma-dept.gov.in" the notice added.
