With the constant evolution of the country’s electricity regulations, consumer protection in the Indian electricity sector has grown dexterously. Every Electricity Act that has been passed throughout the years has increased the extent of consumer protection. During the last two decades, the Country has witnessed notable improvements, particularly in the infrastructure, power generation, and most importantly consumer welfare. The Electricity Act of 2003, in its numerous clauses and other government legislation and policy documents, clearly state that efficiency consumer protection, and welfare are the primary goals for achieving real reforms in the electricity sector. The government, through this Act, has provided several ways to promote consumer awareness. The Act has also established a comprehensive two-tier grievance redressal mechanism consisting of CGRF at the primary level and Ombudsman at the State level to protect consumers from the tiring traditional resolution process. To ensure that the consumers benefit from the regulations, the Act also provides for minimum standards in the form of Standards of Performance which are required to be met by the licensees.

2024-01-19T08:05:54+00:00

The Pharmaceutical market in Cambodia attracts high competition due to the fewer entry barriers in the market. The Cambodian medicine requirements are highly dependent on the import of medicines from countries like India, China, Bangladesh, Thailand, Vietnam, and some European countries. India is one of the leading suppliers and contributors to medicine imports in Cambodia due to its cost-effective generic products. In such a competitive market pharmaceutical companies need to constantly introduce new products and dosage forms to be ahead of the competition and capture market share. Any pharmaceutical product imported into Cambodia must be registered at MOH –Cambodia before entering the country. Hence pharmaceutical companies need to focus on the product registration process first, to introduce new products in the market. This descriptive qualitative research concentrates on the first step of creating product-mix offerings –i.e., the new product registration process. The data was collected from one-to-one personal written interviews with the field experts. The current pharmaceutical product registration guideline in Cambodia takes approximately 7 months to register a new POM product. However, companies can opt for fast-track approval by paying an additional official fee determined by the regulators.
