3. Addressing Payment Default Issues
• Implement a nationwide blacklist for payment defaulters to protect our members’ financial interests, fostering a more secure business environment for all stakeholders.
4. Forging Alliances with Key Associations
• Build partnerships with industry associations such as AICOD, HSCDA, PSCDA, and the Himachal Drug Manufacturer Association, aligning objectives and strengthening our unified voice for effective industry representation.
5. Uniting Stakeholders Across the Industry
