Submission of information in conformity with provisions contained in Annexure I to Appendix 10 of Hand Book of procedures (Vol.I) in respect of applications for grant of Advance Licences under Para 4.7 of Hand Book of Procedures (Vol.I) TRADE NOTICE NO. 09/AM05 Dated 03/12/2004 Attention of trade is invited to Trade Notice No.20 dated 19.02.2003 dealing with streamlining of procedure for licensing under Para 4.7 of Hand Book of Procedures (Vol.I) 2002-2007. Advance Licensing Committee has observed that the sets submitted by the applicants are not in conformity with the Annexure-I to Appendix 10 of Hand Book of Procedures (Vol.I). The nature of deficiencies noticed while examination of cases by ALC is as below: (1) For the products falling under the categories of "Chemicals Allied Products" "Plastics", the documents prescribed in Annexure-I to Appendix 10 are not enclosed by the party with the sets. (2) Self-certified copy of valid Drug Manufacturing Licence, wherever applicable is invariably not submitted with the application. A copy of the latest Annexure-I to Appendix 10 of Hand Book of Procedures (Vol.I) is enclosed to this Trade Notice. To this extent the contents of Part III of Annexure-I to the Trade Notice No.20 dated 19.02.2003 may be treated to have been revised as per Annexure-I to this Trade Notice. The members of Trade are requested to submit complete information as per the same otherwise their applications will be liable to be rejected/returned. ( S. S. SANDHU ) ZONAL JT.
