Interstate transfer of drugs is done after the creation of Drug Transfer Advice (DTA). DTAs are prepared by Central TB Division (CTD)/Head Quarters (HQ) level for State Drug Store (SDS)-to-State Drug Store (SDS) Level, SDS for District Drug Store (DDS)-to-DDS level and DDS for Tuberculosis Unit (TU) to TU only. TU and Peripheral Health Institution (PHI) level stores cannot transfer drugs through this process. Once the DTA has been, drugs are issued by the transferring store with respect to the transfer order number. This process in Ni-kshay Aushadhi is recorded through the issue Voucher DTA mechanism.  The process is same for SDS, DDS and TU stores.
