Lupin Diagnostics Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of global pharmaceutical company Lupin, has announced that it has secured 100% NABL accreditation across all its greenfield laboratories in India. This makes Lupin Diagnostics one of the few diagnostic chains in the country to have all its facilities accredited by the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL).
In a statement released on April 23, 2025, Ravindra Kumar, CEO of Lupin Diagnostics, said, 'This accreditation is a testament to the team's dedication to patient care and our mission to promote healthier lives. The 27 greenfield labs across the country ensure timely and accurate reporting. Our goal is to empower doctors and patients with evidence-based diagnostics.'
The recognition reflects Lupin Diagnostics' consistent focus on quality, operational efficiency, and patient-centric services. The company has been recognized with several national awards, including the 'Patient-Centric Diagnostic Laboratories Company of the Year' at the IHW 3rd Patients First Award 2024, and 'Pathology Lab of the Year' at the ET Healthcare Awards 2022 and 2024.
Founded in December 2021, Lupin Diagnostics started with a 45,000 sq. ft. National Reference Laboratory in Navi Mumbai and has since grown its footprint across West, South, East, and Central India. Its labs provide over 3,000 types of diagnostic tests, including molecular diagnostics, microbiology, cytology, immunology, and biochemistry.
This milestone marks a significant step in Lupin's broader vision of enhancing healthcare infrastructure in India and promoting accurate, reliable, and accessible diagnostics to every corner of the country.

China's Biotech Is Cheaper and Faster

Just outside of Shanghai, in the city of Wuxi, China is building its future of medicine — a booming biotechnology hub of factories and laboratories where global pharmaceutical companies can develop and manufacture drugs faster and cheaper than anywhere else. Amid the Trump administration's tariffs on China, I figured manufacturing hubs like this one would be wracked with anxiety. But when I visited Wuxi in April, government officials insisted that its research hub was flourishing. They were proud to tell me about their superstar labs and companies that are continuing to thrive. The fact that Chinese biotechnology stocks have surged over 60 percent since January seems to bolster this claim. The city's researchers certainly seemed positioned to be busy for decades. In its quest to dethrone American dominance in biotech, China isn't necessarily trying to beat America at its own game. While the U.S. biotech industry is known for incubating cutting-edge treatments and cures, China's approach to innovation is mostly focused on speeding up manufacturing and slashing costs. The idea isn't to advance, say, breakthroughs in the gene-editing technology CRISPR; it's to make the country's research, development, testing and production of drugs and medical products hyperefficient and cheaper. As a result, China's biotech sector can deliver drugs and other medical products to customers at much cheaper prices, including inexpensive generics. These may not be world-changing cures, but they are treatments that millions of people around the world rely on every day. And as China's reach expands, the world will soon have to reckon with a new leader in biotech and decide how it wants to respond. One such company that embodies the Chinese approach to biotech is Wuxi AppTec. It's a one-stop shop for pharmaceutical research and development, streamlining everything from early-stage drug discovery to young scientist recruitment and medication production. The company, whose clients have included Chinese firms like Innovent and Jiangsu Hengrui, as well as American and European drugmakers like Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline and AstraZeneca, was involved in, by one estimate, a quarter of the drugs used in the United States, including blockbuster cancer drugs. Though the Chinese government bargains hard with both foreign and domestic pharmaceutical companies to provide products at the right price in exchange for market access, the low prices that Chinese consumers pay are ultimately the result of Chinese biotech companies' ability to test and manufacture drugs at a pace far faster than their American counterparts. So far, American biotech giants don't seem to mind the competition, since their own use of companies like Wuxi AppTec allows them to dedicate more of their money to breakthrough research.
