Secure Your MD 6 Loan License Efficiently with
MDR Consultant Expertise

MD 6 refers to the form used to grant a Loan License to Manufacture for Sale or for Distribution of Class A or Class B medical devices in India. It’s important to understand that the application itself is submitted through a different form, MD-4. Here’s a breakdown of the two:

  • MD-4: This is the application form for the Loan License. It’s filled out and submitted electronically through the online medical device portal.
  • MD-6: This form represents the official Loan License itself, which is issued by the State Licensing Authority upon approval of your application (MD-4).

Who Needs MD -6

An application for an MD 6 Loan License (granted through Form MD-6) can be submitted by any person or company who wishes to manufacture Class A or Class B medical devices in India. This includes:

  • Start-ups or companies new to medical device manufacturing that don’t have their own facilities but want to produce Class A or B devices.
  • The manufacturer who lacks their own manufacturing facility but desires to produce Class A or Class B medical devices.

Benefits of Obtaining MD-6

Here’s a breakdown of the benefits:

  • Increased Production: Companies can leverage existing licensed facilities to scale up production and meet market demands.
  • Reduced Costs: This approach avoids the significant capital expenditure required to set up a new manufacturing unit.
  • Faster Time to Market: By utilizing an existing facility, companies can potentially bring their products to market quicker.
  • Scalability: Easily adjust production based on demand by contracting with a loan facility.
  • Flexibility: Suitable for companies needing temporary or occasional production boosts.
