Although the market is currently dominated by local and unorganized players, the organized segment has also reported strong growth to expand its reach in rural and semi urban areas. We expect that high investments in the primary healthcare sector will drive demand for diagnostic services in the country and poor condition of healthcare services in the government sector will result in more revenues to the private sector.

We have found that molecular diagnostics is emerging as one of the fastest growing segments of the diagnostics market. The main reason for such a tremendous growth is the unique ability of molecular diagnostic to treat a wide range of infectious and genetic diseases. Realizing such a huge potential, various companies are pouring investments in this segment.
