Disposal / Rejection of Long-Pending Applications on SUGAM Portal Awaiting Query Response

CDSCO has issued a public notice regarding the disposal/rejection of long-pending applications on the SUGAM portal where queries raised by the authority are still awaiting response from applicants.

This update is important for manufacturers, importers, authorized agents, and regulatory applicants who have pending applications on the SUGAM portal. Applications where CDSCO queries have remained unanswered for a prolonged period may be considered for disposal/rejection as per the notice.

The update highlights the need for applicants to regularly monitor their SUGAM portal account, review pending queries, and submit timely responses with complete and accurate documentation.

Key Takeaways for Applicants

• Review all pending applications on the SUGAM portal
• Check whether any query response is pending
• Prepare complete and technically justified responses
• Submit replies within the prescribed/available timeline
• Avoid keeping applications inactive for extended periods
• Maintain proper internal tracking of CDSCO submissions and query status

Why This Matters

Delayed query responses can lead to unnecessary regulatory setbacks, including application rejection, loss of processing time, and the need for fresh submission. For businesses planning approvals, imports, registrations, or licensing activities, timely query management is critical to maintaining regulatory continuity.

At Aloft Solutions India, we recommend that companies conduct an immediate review of their pending SUGAM applications and take corrective action wherever query responses are outstanding.
