Ravindra Kumar, Vice President, and Head — Lupin Diagnostics said, “Diagnostics is the first step in disease management.

We are very pleased to now offer our services in East India, a very important region for us.”
Lupin Diagnostics offers a comprehensive range of diagnostics services to doctors, patients and consumers. Some of its key consumer-centric features are GPS-enabled temperature—controlled sample movement, smart reports, NABL accreditation of each laboratory, trend report analysis, and live home collection booking and tracking. The company started its journey by establishing a stateof-the-art 45,000 square foot National Reference Laboratory in Navi Mumbai with world-class equipment, experienced doctors assisted by trained technologists and stringent quality control protocols.
