Abstract: The present invention provides a more simplified, cost effective, commercially feasible process for the manufacture of Carvedilol (I) comprising a step of reacting 4-hydroxy carbazole (II) with epichlorohydrin and directly isolating the intermediate 4-(2,3-epoxypropoxy) carbazole (III) which on purification followed by reaction with 2-(2-methoxyphenoxy) ethylamine (IV) yields crude Carvedilol (I). The crude Carvedilol (I) is converted to pure product either through solvent crystallization (without salt formation) or through salt formation followed by salt cleavage and solvent crystallization resulting in highly pure (i.e. ICH grade) Carvedilol.
