Gastro Products in Ajmer

Twenty-one brands, and the shape of this area is unusual: a very deep core and a thin tail.

The core is the PPI group — pantoprazole, omeprazole, esomeprazole, rabeprazole and dexlansoprazole, plain and paired with domperidone, levosulpiride or ondansetron. Thirteen brands across five molecules, which is more depth than most PCD lists carry on any single class.

Around it sits one of nearly everything else: three sugar-free antacid suspensions including a sodium alginate raft preparation, two laxatives, a diastase-pepsin enzyme syrup, a probiotic capsule and a Bacillus clausii spore suspension for the paediatric counter.

PPIs are chronic-course products. That is the commercial point for an associate working Ajmer — a prescription written once tends to be dispensed for months, so the reorder pattern is predictable in a way that acute lines never are.

Gastro range — PCD franchise and third party manufacturing in Ajmer

Everything in the Gastro range is on this page: 19 products with composition, pack and printed MRP against each. By dosage form that is 9 capsules, 5 syrups, 2 tablets and 1 bottle. What is not on the page is the rate, because it depends on the quantity and the route — send both and it comes back.

Each line shows what is in the pack and what the pack is. The rate underneath the printed MRP depends on the quantity and the route, which is why it is quoted rather than published.

Gastro in Ajmer: what this part of the range is

The gastro division is the quiet, dependable part of a pharma basket. It does not produce the dramatic first month that anti-infectives do, and it is still producing in the twelfth month when the acute segments have had three flat weeks.

Building a Gastro basket for a territory

A complete gastro basket runs from the counter products — antacids, enzymes — through the proton pump inhibitors and their combinations to the specialty liver and gall lines. The counter end opens the chemist account; the chronic end pays for it.

Brand families in this range

The range is not 19 unrelated products. 14 of them sit in brand families that share a stem, which is how a prescriber remembers them and how an associate sells them:

• PANVIBE — 5 presentations
• DIGENOS — 3 presentations
• DEXINOS — 2 presentations
• GUTNOS — 2 presentations
• OMENOS — 2 presentations

One stem across several presentations is worth real money in a chamber. The prescriber learns one name instead of four, and the associate has one conversation instead of four.

Pack formats across the Gastro list

The range is mixed by dosage form: capsules are the largest part at 9 of 18 products, which is about 50 per cent of it. A buyer planning stock has to plan for more than one set of handling rules.

The capsules

Hard gelatin capsules are almost always packed alu-alu, and for once the expensive pack is not a choice. The shell is gelatin, gelatin takes up moisture, and a capsule that has softened in a strip is a complaint whatever the fill inside it is doing. A blister pack on a capsule is a cost saving the distributor pays for later.

Capsules are the form most often damaged in transit, and almost never by impact. Heat is what does it. A consignment held overnight in a closed truck in May will arrive with strips that look fine and capsules that have gone tacky, and the loss shows up weeks later at a retail counter rather than at the goods-inward gate.

The syrups

Syrups are sold by bottle volume and bought by carton, and the two numbers rarely line up neatly. A 100 ml bottle in a printed mono carton with a measuring cup is a different product commercially from the same syrup in a 60 ml bottle without one, even though the rate sheet shows one line. Ask which it is before comparing.

Paediatric syrups turn over fast and seasonally, and a stockist who has read the season wrong is sitting on bottles with a dating problem. Shelf life on the batch you are offered is worth asking about on every liquid order, not just the first one.

Three ways to take the Gastro range

Franchise, own-brand manufacturing or plain distribution — the Gastro range is available on all three. A franchise appointment is district-wise and exclusive for the range. A third party manufacturing order puts your brand on the carton. Distribution is the simplest of the three and carries no exclusivity.

All three need the same two documents: a valid drug licence and a GST registration in the name of the firm being invoiced.

How the Gastro range breaks down

What the Gastro group contains, by product segments:

• Capsules — 9 products
• Syrups & Suspensions — 5 products
• Paediatric Range — 2 products
• Tablets — 2 products
• Injections — 1 product

The uneven distribution is deliberate rather than accidental: the range is built against how these products are actually written, not to fill every box on a chart.

Comparing rates across suppliers

Most buyers looking at a Gastro list are holding two or three others. Putting them on the same basis takes four checks: the pack size each rate refers to, the printed MRP it sits under, whether it is ex-factory or landed, and whether GST is included.

Rates here are ex-Chandigarh, freight extra at actuals, GST as applicable by product category, payment in advance. A landed quotation already contains a freight figure you cannot see, which is what makes it look sharper than it is.

Price band across the Gastro range

Across the 19 products here, printed MRPs span ₹90.00 to ₹2,450.00 — a factor of about 27.2 from one end to the other, with the median at ₹1,050.00.

A practical consequence: ordering the whole range in equal quantities ties up far more money in the expensive lines than their share of the prescriptions justifies. Order against the writing in your territory rather than against the list.

1 of the 19 products here do not carry a published MRP on this page; those are confirmed with the rate, because the figure is set against the pack ordered.

Questions buyers ask about this range

How are goods dispatched to Ajmer?

By surface transport from Chandigarh unless something else is agreed. Rates are ex-Chandigarh, freight extra at actuals, GST as applicable, payment in advance.

What is the minimum order quantity?

It differs by product and by dosage form — a tablet in alu-alu, a syrup and an injection are three different figures. Send the products and quantities you have in mind and the minimums come back with the rates.

Can I get Gastro products under my own brand name?

Yes. Any product in this range can be manufactured as third party manufacturing under your brand. You keep the brand, the trademark and the market; you will need a drug licence and GST registration in the invoicing firm's name plus trademark details for the name being printed.

What certification does the company hold?

ISO 9001:2015. No plant certification, foreign regulatory approval or government endorsement is claimed for the company or for any product in this range.

Is a PCD franchise available for this range in Ajmer?

Appointments are district-wise and subject to the district still being open. Send your district and your drug licence details and you will be told plainly whether it is.

Do I need a drug licence?

Yes, on every route. A valid drug licence and a GST registration in the name of the firm being invoiced are required for distribution, for a franchise appointment and for a third party manufacturing order alike.

How many products are in the Gastro range?

19 at present. Composition, pack and printed MRP for each are listed on this page, and all of them are supplied on the same three routes.
