Abstract

The cosmetics industry in India has undergone significant evolution, catering to diverse demographics with products ranging from makeup to personal care items. Governed by the Drug and Cosmetics Act of 1940, the regulatory framework emphasizes quality management through amendments such as the introduction of Schedule H1 and standards for homoeopathic medicines. Prohibiting misbranded, adulterated, and spurious drugs, the Act outlines penalties for offenses, including imprisonment and fines. Obtaining a drug license entails a four year practical experience requirement, with stringent regulations for manufacturing, storage, and sales. Import of drugs is allowed under specific conditions, involving licenses for specified classes of drugs. This comprehensive framework reflects the active phase of the Indian cosmetic industry, ensuring the safety, quality, and efficacy of products for an expanding consumer base across urban and rural areas, diverse socio economic backgrounds, and age groups.
