We have following queries.
- From where we can manufacture these products from Maharashtra or Telangana?.
- If we manufacture these products from some party, how we assure that our formula for the product will not be used by other people?.
Response:
Herbal products could be manufactured in two way:
In dietary and food supplements, you can’t claim any medicinal claim. You have to sell it as food supplement and there will be clear indication at packing that “Dietary and Food supplement, not for medicinal use”. You can get manufactured your product from any food supplement manufacturing company. Company will take approval as dietary supplements.
In Ayurvedic product, Product approval is required by ayurvedic manufacturing company from Ayush department before manufacturing of any new combination. Specifications that require approvals are indications, dosage form, efficacy or side effects if any etc. You can claim medicinal property of combinations of herbs.

Patent is only alternative otherwise if you get formulation approval at manufacturer basis, he will be free to manufacture this formulation for any other party without your prior permission.
