Health Ministry extends Schedule M compliance deadline for small and medium manufacturers with turnover below Rs. 250 crores to 31st December 2025

The Ministry of Health has issued an amendment to Schedule M, granting small and medium scale manufacturers the opportunity to extend their compliance timeline till 31^st December, 2025.

The earlier 12-months timeline was deemed insufficient for implementing compliance under provisions of the revised Schedule M. In view of this, manufacturers with an annual turnover of Rs. 250 crores or less may now apply for an extension of the compliance deadline to 31^st December 2025. To avail this extension, eligible manufacturers are required to submit an application to the Central Licence Approving Authority in Form ‘A’ no later than 11^th May, accompanied by a detailed plan outlining the necessary upgrades.
