Ambroxol 15 mg with guaifenesin 50 mg and terbutaline 1.25 mg — sugar-free, 100 ml.
UNOTUSS-A — AMBROXOL HYDROCHLORIDE 15MG + GUAIFENESIN 50MG + TERBUTALINE SULPHATE 1.25MG + SUGAR FREE COUGH — is one of the Syrups & Suspensions lines UNOS Biotech supplies. The trade pack is 100 ML. The printed MRP on the pack is ₹110.00. Whether you are asking as a distributor, as a franchise associate looking at a district, or as a company wanting the product under your own brand, the composition and pack on this page are what you are buying.
UNOTUSS-A is a fixed-dose combination of four actives:
That matters on a rate sheet more than it looks. A combination is not interchangeable with its components, and a prescriber who has written this particular pairing will not accept a pack that carries only part of it. A distributor in Chennai carrying the combination answers that prescription; one carrying the single molecules does not.
UNOTUSS-A is packed 100 ML.
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.
Syrup is the heaviest thing in a pharma consignment per rupee of value and the most likely to arrive damaged. Freight on a syrup order to a distant state can be a visible fraction of the landed cost, which is why a rate quoted ex-Chandigarh and a rate quoted landed are not comparable numbers on this form in particular.
Consignments to Chennai move by surface from Chandigarh unless something else is agreed, and the packing is specified for that journey rather than for an ideal one.
Competition is narrower than in the commodity segments and continuity of supply matters more than the rate.
Availability of the exact strength and pack is usually what decides the account.
UNOTUSS-A is part of the UNOTUSS family. The others are:
The practical reason to take the family rather than the single product is substitution. A chemist who has your brand for one presentation and somebody else's for the next has already introduced a competitor into the shop, and getting them back out is harder than keeping them out.
A targeted line rather than a general one: it moves where the chamber for it exists and sits quietly where it does not.
This product sits in a specialist corner of the list where volumes are modest and the writing is deliberate rather than routine.
Monopoly rights on this range are granted by district, not by state or by city. The practical test of a monopoly is simple: if the company cannot tell you who else holds your district, it is not granting one.
For the Syrups & Suspensions block in particular, exclusivity matters more than it does on a nutraceutical shelf, because the business is built on a prescriber's habit rather than on a counter display. A habit split between two suppliers is a habit neither of them owns.
Before comparing a rate on UNOTUSS-A with anybody else's, put both quotations on the same basis. Per bottle rather than per box, because pack sizes differ. Against the printed MRP, because that is what PTR and PTS are built from. Ex-factory rather than landed, because freight to Chennai is a real number and a quotation that has absorbed it has also hidden it.
A supplier who cannot state all four plainly is not necessarily expensive. They are just not yet comparable, and the gap usually closes in their favour or against it once they are.
The Syrups & Suspensions block on this list, besides UNOTUSS-A:
What makes a segment worth carrying whole rather than partially is the spread of a prescriber's writing. The same chamber will write several of these in a week, and a supplier with one of them gets one share of the business.
Manufacturing UNOTUSS-A under your own brand is the same product on different paperwork. The composition and the pack are as shown on this page; what changes is the name on the carton and the firm on the invoice.
Liquid orals have a lower minimum order quantity than tablets in most third party manufacturing conversations, because there is no tooling to pay for. What there is instead is the bottle, the cap, the carton and the measuring cup, each with its own supplier and its own lead time. The quoted lead time on a syrup is usually a packaging lead time wearing a manufacturing label.
Four things make the first quotation a short conversation rather than a long one: the quantity, the drug licence, the GST registration and the trademark. Missing any of the four is the commonest reason a first consignment is held.
Belongs alongside the rest of its therapeutic block on a price list.
Works best as part of a basket aimed at one chamber rather than as a standalone line.
MRP on the pack: ₹110.00. It is the ceiling, not what anybody in the chain pays.
Underneath the printed figure the structure is the one every franchise conversation turns on:
Those last four words are where most rate comparisons go wrong. Two offers quoting the same PTS are not the same offer if one is ex-Chandigarh with freight at actuals and the other is landed.
It depends on the pack and the artwork, and it is not the same figure as for a different dosage form. Send the quantity you have in mind and the minimum for this molecule and pack comes back with the rate.
No. That is the printed MRP on the pack. Net rate, PTR and PTS are worked against it and agreed at the time of the order.
No. Rates are quoted ex-Chandigarh, freight extra at actuals, GST as applicable to the product category, payment in advance. A landed cost is the rate plus the freight.
ISO 9001:2015, and nothing beyond it. No other certification, facility approval or regulatory clearance is claimed anywhere on this site.
No. A valid drug licence and a GST registration in the name of the firm being invoiced are required on every route — distribution, franchise and third party manufacturing alike.
Several presentations share the stem. Ask for the family rate rather than the single-product rate; the quantity across the family is usually what moves a quotation.
Lead time comes back with the rate, because it depends on the quantity, the artwork and whether a batch is scheduled. Transit after dispatch is by surface from Chandigarh.
The fastest way to get a usable number on UNOTUSS-A is to send three things: the quantity, your district in Chennai, and whether this is for distribution, for a franchise appointment or for your own brand. Rate, minimum order quantity and lead time come back against those. Call 8264472179 or use the enquiry form.
Send the quantity you need against the pack shown above and we come back with the rate, the minimum order quantity and a lead time. Rates are quoted ex-Chandigarh, freight extra at actuals, GST as applicable to the product category, payment in advance. Expiry and breakage claims are not entertained, which is why the shelf life on the batch you are offered is worth asking about when you order rather than afterwards.
Two documents decide whether an order can be invoiced at all, and they are the same two on all three routes: a valid drug licence in the name of the firm being invoiced — commonly Form 20B and 21B for a wholesaler — and GST registration in that same firm's name. The name on the licence and the name on the invoice have to match; an order held at dispatch is almost always held because they did not.
A third party manufacturing order needs one more: the trademark registration, or the application number, for any brand name you intend to print. That is needed before artwork rather than before dispatch, which gives it a longer runway and makes it easier to forget. Cartons, foils, labels and inserts are produced against artwork you approve before a batch is scheduled, not after it.
If you are applying for a licence now, that is a normal place to be starting from. The quotation can be worked out in the meantime — only the dispatch waits on the paperwork.
Four terms carry every franchise conversation in this industry, and mixing them up is how two quotations get compared that were never comparable:
Those last four words matter more than anything else on this list. Two offers quoting the same PTS are not the same offer if one is ex-factory with freight at actuals and the other is landed at your godown. Before comparing anybody's rate with anybody else's, put both on the same basis: per tablet, bottle or tube rather than per box, since pack sizes differ; against the printed MRP, since the margins are built from it; and ex-factory rather than landed, since freight is a real number and a quotation that has absorbed it has also hidden it. The second thing worth checking is what quantity a rate assumes — a number for a full run and a number for a trial batch are both honest and they are not the same offer.
Franchise appointments are granted by district rather than by state or by city, and they cover the range rather than a single product. Both of those are deliberate. A monopoly on one line is not a territory — an associate who holds one finds the rest of the segment arriving in their market through somebody else. And the practical test of a monopoly is simple: if a company cannot tell you who else holds your district, it is not granting one.
Building a prescriber relationship takes months of visits. An associate who finds a second supplier's representative in the same waiting room has lost those months, which is the whole reason the appointment is written the way it is.
It is shorter than most people expect, and the order of the steps matters because each one depends on the last:
UNOS Biotech is a pharma marketing company. Products are manufactured at licensed third-party units and marketed under the UNOS Biotech name, or under yours. That is the normal structure for most of the PCD and franchise market in this country, and it is worth understanding rather than guessing at, because it tells you what questions are reasonable.
Reasonable: ask for the composition, the pack, the printed MRP, the batch documentation that travels with the goods, and the shelf life on what you are being offered. Not reasonable, and a warning sign when a supplier answers it anyway: asking a marketing company for a plant certification it does not hold. A company that will claim one it has not got will also claim a lead time it cannot meet.
Goods move by surface transport from Chandigarh unless something else is agreed, and the packing is specified for that journey rather than for an ideal one. Every consignment travels with its batch documentation. Composition, pack size and printed MRP are exactly as shown on this page — those are the details on the pack itself.
UNOS BIOTECH PVT. LTD. is an ISO 9001:2015 certified company. That is a quality management system standard, and it is the only certification claimed anywhere on this site. No plant certification, foreign regulatory approval or government endorsement is claimed, because none is held.
The restraint is deliberate and it protects everybody downstream. A distributor who repeats a certification their supplier invented is the one standing in front of the buyer when it gets checked. For anything clinical, what a product contains is stated on the pack, and how it should be used is a matter for a registered medical practitioner and the pack insert — not for a supplier's catalogue page.
