The company has received a warning letter from the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) as a result of the inspection carried out in January 2019, Indoco Remedies said in a filing to the BSE.

"The company will respond to the warning letter within stipulated time and is already working with current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) consultant to ensure that the remediation activities are completed in line with the USFDA's expectations," it added.

"We have already done considerable remediation work and shall continue to implement necessary additional corrective actions", Indoco Remeides MD Aditi Kare Panandikar said.

The company is committed to being cGMP-compliant and supplying quality products to its customers and the patients across the globe, she added.
