In a regulatory filing made after market hours on Friday, the pharmaceutical company informed that it has received the regulatory status from American drug regulatory for its facilities located at Goa Plant-II & III. This action from the US FDA follows the inspection conducted by USFDA in July 2024.
The USFDA has determined that the inspection classification of this facility remains as ‘Official Action Indicated’ (OAI).
The facility had been inspected by the USFDA in February 2023 and had received an OAI status in May 2023.
'Indoco is comprehensively working on the remedial action plan at the Facility which will be completed by Q3 2024,” the company said in a statement.
