Brief Summary  
Study Design: Open-label, Multicentre, Randomized, Parallel-Group, Two arm study

To compare the Time to Response to treatment with Standard of Care  Chlorpromazine CPZ Versus SOC alone 
TTR is defined as the reduction of at least one level of severity relative to the baseline as per the World Health Organization [WHO] 8 - point ordinal scale for clinical improvement. The median time to produce the first response measured as a reduction in severity will be compared between the treatment arm SOC  PLUS CPZ and the comparator

The primary measure of the efficacy of the drug chlorpromazine will be the reduction in the number of days required to produce the first response. This response is defined as the reduction in the severity of the disease 

To demonstrate that greater clinical improvement is seen on treatment with SOC PLUS Chlorpromazine versus SOC alone. Clinical improvement will be monitored post-dosing and will be assessed based on the following parameters
1. A decrease in the swab viral load of SARS COV 2
2. A decrease in inflammatory markers will be measured at screening and End of Treatment EOT. The inflammatory markers which will be evaluated are: C Reactive Protein , lymphocytes, Interleukin-6 , Lactate dehydrogenase , inflammatory cytokines, NT-ProBNP, hScTn, Platelet count, Sr. Ferritin and coagulation factors like platelets, D-Dimer

The study population will comprise male & non-pregnant, non-lactating female patients between 18-65 years who are evaluated as moderate cases of COVID19. Moderate cases will be defined as per the ICMR guidelines and treating Investigator assessment. The selection of the participants will be strict as per the eligibility criteria described in the protocol. The recruitment will be voluntary and without any coercion. Participants will be fairly selected and no particular group will be coerced to participate. All participants will be enrolled only after obtaining valid written informed consent. In case a vulnerable population is to be enrolled, the enrolment will be properly justified so that at all times safety, wellbeing, and rights of the
