The price of Covishield has already been announced by Serum Institute of India. The state will have to pay Rs 400 per dose to buy the vaccine, a joint venture between Oxford University and AstraZeneca. It will cost 800 rupees for private hospitals.

Krishna M Illah, Chairman and Managing Director, Bharat Biotech, explains, “We have been providing world class healthcare services for the last 25 years. Money needs to be recovered to keep the journey of discovery like a vaccine against Covid-19. The cost of the clinical trial from the production of the vaccine has been covered by the organization’s own funds and funds. ”
