Medical device manufacturers need to resubmit MSC and NCC as CDSCO launches Automated Process

A Non-Conviction Certificate (NCC) is a document issued by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) to medical device manufacturers and importers in India. It verifies that a company has not been convicted of any offenses related to serious injuries or deaths associated with its medical devices, reported malfunctions of its devices, or instances where its devices do not meet quality standards.

The notice stated,

"In order to promote ease of doing business and to simplify the regulatory procedure, the current online application workflow for grant of a Market Standing Certificate (MSC) and Non-Conviction Certificate (NCC) for medical devices licensed by Central Licensing Authority is upgraded in the Online System for Medical Devices with a new workflow for auto-generated MSC and NCC certificates."

In this regard, the notice further stated that all the current MSC and NCC applications received by CDSCO in the old workflow will be automatically rejected by the system.

In view of the above, the committee requested that all concerned stakeholders resubmit fresh MSC and NCC applications from the date of issuance of this notice.
