Mumbai, May 1 (IBNS) Maharashtra's Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) has ordered that a First Information Report (FIR) be filed against Kunal Bahl, the CEO of e-commerce giant Snapdeal.com, for the sale of prescription drugs online.
FDA commissioner Harshadeep Kamble said on Friday said the FIR has been ordered against  Bahl and directors of the company.
 
The FDA said it had received information about the alleged sale of a cough syrup, and certain tablets, both prescription drugs that can be sold only when prescribed by medical practitioner.
