Pharma Sahi Daam (correct price) is an online search mobile app for checking prices of scheduled medicines which are under price regulation as well as non-scheduled medicines instantly at the time of purchase of medicines. The app will indicate the maximum retail price (MRP) of the medicines inclusive of all taxes. Thus the consumers can verify whether medicines are being sold within the approved price range and also detect any case of overpricing by pharmaceutical companies and chemists. In case of overpricing the consumer can lodge a complaint through Pharma Jan Samadhan website (http://nppaindia. nic.in/redressal.html).
The App is designed and developed by National Informatics Centre for National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority (NPPA), a government regulatory agency under Ministry of Chemicals & Fertilisers. The app is made available in iOS as well as Android platforms and is compliant to the recently introduced Goods and Services Tax (GST) norms.
