Medicines were stored directly on the floor at a unit of Cipla Pharma & Life Sciences, according to a regulator's findings. The regulator also identified deficiencies in procedures for handling expired medicines.

These findings led to the cancellation of drug sale licences for the unit in question, which is a Carry and Forwarding facility.

Further details about the cancellation and the regulator's actions are available from the source, but it is known that the issues with storage and handling procedures were key factors in the decision.
