Now PharmD(PB) course is unavailable in Indian Government Colleges. While Pharm. D was approved for the 2022-2023 academic session with 30 admissions, the closure of the PB program was finalized for the following year.

Pharm.D (Post Baccalaureate) was unavailable in India's government colleges as of the 2021-2022 academic year. This decision was made to close the Pharm. D (PB) program starting from the 2021-2022 session, subject to the examining authority submitting a disaffiliation letter. While Pharm. D was approved for the 2022-2023 academic session with 30 admissions, the closure of the PB program was finalized for the following year. 


The main reason why Pharm. D (Post Baccalaureate) courses are often unavailable in government colleges is due to regulations and funding constraints, particularly regarding the need for extensive hospital infrastructure and faculty. Privately run colleges are often better positioned to meet these requirements due to potentially higher funding and flexibility in resource allocation.
