1. Having heard Mr. F.S. Nariman, Mr. N.N. Goswamy, Senior Advocates and Mr. Prashant Kumar, Advocate, we modify the earlier order dated 24-2-1997 as under:
The permission granted by the order dated 24-2-1997 for export of the fixed dose combinations of Analgin known by any brand name manufactured by any of the companies in India and the entire existing stock with them as of today is permitted in the same manner and subject to the same terms and conditions as indicated in the order dated 24-2-1997 with regard to the stock of the drugs manufactured prior to 17-12-1997. The earlier order dated 24-2-1997 stands modified to this extent only.
2. We have also considered the submission of some of the learned Counsel that the date of the imposition of the ban on manufacture of the fixed dose combinations of Analgin known by any brand name, be postponed in view of certain observations made in Core Group recommendations. We are not satisfied that any relaxation should be granted in this respect. The earlier order relating to imposition of ban on manufacture of fixed dose combinations of Analgin known by any brand name is, therefore, to continue.
3. All the IAs are disposed of in terms of the above order.
4. List the petitions on 20-8-1997.
