Navigate India's Growing Cosmetics Market

Assisting Global Cosmetic Manufacturers and Brand Owners in meeting India’s cosmetics registration requirements.

In 2018, India proposed new regulations for cosmetics through the Draft Cosmetics Rules 2018, released by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare on November 29th. These proposed rules were designed to modernise the regulation of cosmetic products in India, specifically addressing how they are manufactured, imported, and labelled.

Cosmetics companies aiming to place products on the Indian market must complete a comprehensive Import Registration with the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO). Required information includes pack sizes, variants, and manufacturing locations. This mandatory process ensures product quality and consumer safety by maintaining rigorous standards.
