News & analysis

  1. Diagnostic lab unit economics in India explained

    Indian diagnostic labs earn from the gap between what a test is billed and what it costs to run: reagents, consumables, technician time, rent, equipment EMIs and referral commissions. High-volume routine tests carry thin margins; specialised tests and packages carry more. Profit comes from throughput, since most lab costs are fixed once a machine is installed.

  2. Pharmacy chain unit economics in India explained

    Indian pharmacy chains earn from two engines: prescription and OTC medicines, where margins are set by trade margin rules and distributor discounts, and front-of-store categories like wellness, personal care and private label, where margins are higher. Store-level profit depends on footfall, basket size, mix and how much of sales come from own brands.
