1. Male or female patients, aged >=18 to <= 75 years at screening
2. Patients with a diagnosis of COPD (as defined by the GOLD Guidelines, 2021)
3. Post-bronchodilator FEV1 >=30% and <80% of the predicted normal value and post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC (forced vital capacity) ratio < 0.70
4. A modified Medical Research Council dyspnoea scale (mMRC) grade 2 or greater.
5. COPD treatment stable dose of maintenance monotherapy (LAMA, LABA or ICS), or stable dose of double maintenance therapy (LAMA/LABA or ICS/LABA), for one month prior to screening
6. Current or previous cigarette/beedi smokers with a history of cigarette/beedi smoking of at least 10 pack/years. (Previous smokers are defined as those who have stopped smoking for at least 6 months prior to Screening Visit.)
Subjects who will not meet any of the following criteria will be included in the trial:
1. Patients who are currently receiving dual drug treatment with LABA+LAMA
2. Known respiratory disorders other than COPD including, but not limited to the following: tuberculosis, alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, cystic fibrosis, asthma, active bronchiectasis, sarcoidosis, lung fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary edema, or interstitial lung disease
3. Evidence or history of other clinically significant cardiovascular disease or abnormality (such as, but not limited to, congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, uncontrolled coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, long QT syndrome, atrial fibrillation), renal, neurological, endocrine, immunological, psychiatric, hepatic, or hematological disease or abnormality which, in the opinion of the investigator, are clinically significant and would put the patient at risk through study participation, or would affect the study analyses if the disease exacerbates during the study
4. No significant abnormality that suggests chest disease other than COPD, on chest X-ray or computed tomography (CT) scan taken within six months before screening. If there is no chest X-ray/CT scan is taken within six months prior to screening, a chest X-ray will be performed during screening to rule out any other significant abnormality.
5. History of paradoxical bronchospasm, narrow-angle glaucoma, prostatic hyperplasia, bladder neck obstruction, or severe renal impairment or urinary retention or any other condition, which, in the opinion of the investigator, would contraindicate the use of an anticholinergic or long-acting beta-agonist agent
6. History of allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients of study drugs or components of the delivery system
7. Suspected or confirmed SARS-COV2 infection at screening (prior to randomization the subjects will be tested for COVID 19 through rapid antigen test).
8.Hospitalization for COPD exacerbation or pneumonia within three months prior to screening. Any subject who experiences pneumonia and/or moderate or severe COPD exacerbation during the run-in period will be excluded.
9. Clinically significant abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG) finding at screening.
10. Lung volume reduction surgery within 12 months prior to the initiation of the study.
11. Requirement of long term ( > 12 hours daily) oxygen therapy
12. Unable to stop the following medications at the defined times prior to screening spirometry:
Medication Required washout period prior to screening spirometry
Ipratropium or ipratropium/salbutamol 8 Hrs
combination product
Inhaled short acting β-agonists 6 hours
Oral β 2-agonists 48 hours

Zafirlukast, montelukast, zileuton 48 hours
Long-acting anticholinergics
(Tiotropium etc.) 48 hours
Oral or parenteral corticosteroids 6 weeks
Any other investigational medication 30 day
