Third Party Tablet Manufacturing in India
WHO-GMP certified plant at Dabkori, Panchkula
Vibcare Healthcare provides third party tablet manufacturing from its own plant in Panchkula, Haryana, for general tablets. Granulation, compression, coating, blister and strip packing all sit in one block, with an installed capacity of 1.1 billion tablets a year. Foil for blister and strip packs is printed inside the plant on our own rotogravure unit, which keeps artwork changes and repeat orders on our schedule rather than a converter’s.
Third party tablet manufacturing, by the numbers
Installed capacity, approvals and the plant behind them
Inside the tablet section
The machines your batch actually runs on
The section runs as one line from dispensing to secondary packing. Two granulation lines feed the compression room, coated batches move to the coater in the same block, and packing follows on blister, alu-alu and strip machines.
Packing formats and change parts
What we are already tooled for
The pack is set by the change part — the tooling that fixes pocket shape, tablet count and strip size. A format already tooled runs without new tooling cost or added lead time. Some of what is currently in use:
6 tabletsLarge round pocket, clear base
10 tabletsOblong pocket, clear base
15 tabletsOblong pocket, 5 x 3
30 tabletsSmall round pocket, opaque base
10 tabletsPrinted coloured base
Combination kitMixed pockets, printed dosing panelBlister runs in PVC and PVDC, alu-alu for moisture-sensitive products, and aluminium strip. Bottles are available in HDPE, PET and glass. Secondary packing covers mono cartons, unit packs and shippers.
Approvals for the tablet section
All issued to Vibcare Healthcare Pvt Ltd for the Dabkori site
Tablets already on the licence
334 tablet formulations across 34 therapeutic segments
Total approvals across all dosage forms run past 750. Of the tablets on our published product list, these are the ten largest segments. A product already on the list can be quoted against a batch size straight away; anything new needs a product permission from FDA Haryana, which we apply for and give you a timeline on.

GLP certified laboratories in a separate block
Chemical and instrumental
HPLC from Shimadzu, dissolution apparatus from Electrolab, UV spectrophotometry and precision balances, with supporting instruments from LabIndia and PCI Analytics. Full pharmacopoeial testing of raw material and finished product.
Microbiology
A separate microbiology laboratory with HEPA-filtered laminar air flow units, running microbial limit testing, water testing and environmental monitoring of the classified areas.
Stability
Stability chambers from Thermolab running ICH accelerated and long-term studies, with trending and shelf-life data held as records.
With every batch
Batch manufacturing record, in-process check data and a certificate of analysis released against written specifications before dispatch.
The plant
Purpose-built at Dabkori, Panchkula
Two blocks, one direction of flow
Material and personnel flows are kept in one direction across the site.
Block 1 holds manufacturing and packing for tablets, capsules, oral liquids and external preparations, with finished goods storage and dispatch.
Block 2 holds quality control, microbiology, quality assurance, the raw and packing material warehouses, and administration.
The site is licensed for the general section. Beta-lactam products are not made here, so no segregation between beta-lactam and general campaigns is required.
Support beyond the batch
What comes with the manufacturing
Technology transfer
Transfer from your R&D or pilot scale onto our equipment, with critical process parameters and in-process controls agreed before the first commercial batch.
