Your wife can open the shop; but she needs the services of a registered pharmacist. You cannot register as a pharmacist so long as you are inservice.

1. You are a Government servant, you can not be registered as pharmacist if your job does not warrant so.

2. No. government employee can not do another job.

3. You can not use your registration to open medical store in the name of your wife. Registered pharmacist has to be appointed.

4. Discuss with tax consultant.
