Licensing under the Medical Device Rules, 2017

Medical devices are regulated in India under the **Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940**, and the dedicated **Medical Device Rules, 2017**. Licensing is mandatory for all classes of devices (Class A, B, C, D) based on risk.

Licenses are issued by **CDSCO (Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation)** or State Licensing Authorities. Compliance requires strict adherence to **Quality Management System (QMS)** norms, often based on ISO 13485 standards.
