Response:

Herbal Medicines and Ayurvedic Medicines are synonyms in Indian Market. Herbal Medicines are manufactured by same way and under same manufacturing license as of Ayurvedic Medicines. Herbal Medicines could be manufactured only with proper manufacturing license issued by AYUSH department.

Two type of registration could be for herbal medicines. One for Registration of herbal medicine for manufacturing and second for its Brand Name/Trade Name registration.
