How to Start a PCD Pharma Business
A step-by-step route from registration to first order.
1. Register the firm
Proprietorship, partnership or company — whichever suits your scale.
2. Get GST registration
In the same legal name as the firm.
3. Apply for a drug licence
Wholesale drug licence from the State Drug Control Authority for your premises, with a registered pharmacist or competent person named.
4. Choose your segments
Pick the therapeutic areas your local prescribers actually write.
5. Select a PCD company
Compare quality documentation, supply reliability and written territory terms — not just the rate list.
6. Sign and start
Confirm the territory, brand list and minimum commitment in writing, then place your first order.
