Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the pharma sector rely on imported machinery?
Pharmaceutical production requires precision, sterile processing, and automation that meet global regulatory standards, and many advanced systems are not manufactured domestically, making international sourcing essential for compliance and competitiveness.
Are all pharmaceutical machines eligible for duty benefits?
Eligibility depends on machine type, capability enhancement, compliance alignment, and documentation accuracy. Equipment that improves production capacity, automation, or regulatory standardization typically qualifies under relevant policy frameworks.
What challenges do pharma companies face during machinery imports?
Common challenges include high duties, classification errors, documentation complexity, and clearance delays, which affect timelines, increase capital burden, and impact installation and commissioning schedules during expansion or setup.
