The Central Board for Direct Taxes has accused makers of the Dolo-650 tablet of distributing freebies worth Rs 1,000 crore to doctors as consideration for prescribing the tablet, said senior advocate Sanjay Parikh, appearing for the Federation of Medical and Sales Representatives Association of India.

A massive 'DoloGate' controversy has broken out regarding the doling out of freebies to doctors for the prescription of various drugs, arising from a plea in the Supreme Court wherein the bench was informed of a CBDT accusation against the makers of the ubiquitous Dolo-650 drug.

The Supreme Court on Thursday asked the Centre to file its response within 10 days on a plea seeking direction to make pharmaceutical companies liable for giving freebies to doctors as an incentive to prescribe their drugs.
