Veterinary active pharmaceutical ingredients used to prevent and treat coccidiosis in poultry qualify as drugs and medicines where they have established therapeutic use, regulatory recognition and import licensing as drugs. The inclusive definition of "drug" covers substances used as drug components, so bulk drugs and APIs retain that character when used directly or in formulations. The specific description-based IGST entry for drugs and medicines applies across tariff chapters and prevails over the general entry for organic chemicals. Clopidol (VET) and Amprolium 100% (VET) are therefore taxable at the 5% IGST rate, provided they are not covered by the nil-rate entry.
