Eskag Pharma: Empowering the Common Man with Affordable Healthcare

Published

on

A simple quote can change one man’s entire life- “A customer is the most important visitor on our premises.”

It changed the perspective of Mr. Sunil Agarwal, the managing director of the Eskag group of companies. He stepped into the business at a very young age. His father had three manufacturing plants in metal and pulses.

“We lost our father in 1971. We started as a pharmaceutical distributor with just two employees in a 200 sq. ft office space and I continued my education and completed B.com in 1982.” shares Mr. Agarwal. During his extensive journey, Mr. Agarwal realized fulfilling the genuine needs of customers in the most effective and efficient manner is of utmost importance.

Recognizing that the individuals working along with him would be instrumental in propelling his business forward, he conceived the idea that remains central to his approach: “For the people, by our people”- this ethos continues to guide his beliefs and actions.

As a leading pharmaceutical company in the country, Eskag Pharma Pvt. Ltd. stays committed to its mission of providing high-quality yet affordable healthcare solutions to the general public in India.

The Inspiration

In a recent interview, Mr. Sunil Agarwal shared his inspiring journey, which had a humble beginning.

Despite his initial aspiration to pursue a medical career, he ultimately redirected his path and embraced the role of an entrepreneur. Sunil’s mother was a pillar of strength, in every aspect.

“My mother was my major source of inspiration to grow in life. I still follow her words – Work for others, your job will be done automatically. Never believe in the shortcut gains. A long-term journey is difficult but is always fruitful. She played a pivotal role in the growth of my professional career & personal philosophy too.” Mr. Agarwal shares.

A Pioneer in Affordable Healthcare Solutions

Honesty and hard work guided Mr. Sunil on the path to success. Despite facing challenges, his resilience led him to build the Kolkata-based company into a flourishing business venture.

  1. Eskag Pharma Pvt Ltd
  1. Eskag Sanjeevani Multispeciality Hospital
  1. West Bengal Chemical Industries Limited (WBCIL)

Eskag Pharma has 4 WHO-GMP certified formulation plants in Haridwar and market products all over India as well as exports to several countries like Africa, the UK, the USA, the Middle East, and more. It offers medicines in Hormonal, Gastrointestinal, Gynecology, Nephrology, Dermatology, Oral hypoglycemic, Oral laxative, and Pediatric categories. Its pivotal strength is the production of the Suvida Oral Contraceptive Pill which is consumed by 50 lakh women for the last 50 years.

Talking about core strength in business, Mr. Agarwal mentioned his brother Mr. Anil Agarwal who is also the managing director of Eskag Pharma Group of companies. He added that Mr. Anil oversees all 4 WHO-GMP-certified factories and maintains world-class standard to produce excellence to meet export demands.

Eskag Sanjeevani started by providing healthcare services in 2004 now it has 450+ dialysis centres across India with modern medical facilities. It also collaborates with 250 state government hospitals in 15 states to offer free dialysis services performing over 12 lakh dialysis for 10,000+ patients annually through PPP model.

Now Eskag Group of Companies serves in three verticals including Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) Manufacturing & exporting to international markets through West Bengal Chemical Industries Limited (WBCIL). WBCIL mineral salts are used in medicines, foods, animal feeds, and gardening. Its Pre-mixed animal, poultry, and fishery feed are sold in national as well as international markets including India, Japan, Germany, the UK, Italy, and Australia. Today they have bagged 7 product patented APIs.

Better Healthcare & Growth

According to Mr. Agarwal, the consumer’s feedback is the most important factor to mark his services and to be unique in the marketplace. “That’s why we have a dedicated customer support team to gather customer feedback and work on the same to make our services better every day in every way.”

As a forward-thinking organization, Eskag Pharma is looking to expand its product ranges. Every month more than 10,000 women participate in the company’s over 50 medical awareness initiatives for Suvida, the flagship brand of Oral Contraceptive Pill.

Eskag Pharma not only gives priority to its customers but also cares for the welfare of its employees. Today his commitment is to supporting his 4,500-strong staff working at different levels with a footprint of more than 5, 00,000 Lakhs Sq. ft. The organization takes its CSR seriously through which it supports healthcare awareness campaigns, medical camps, and needy communities.

“Our goal is to offer the best healthcare solutions to people of all classes at reasonable prices, even in the most remote areas of the country. We support providing facilities that benefit the general populace and ongoing improvement. We are driven ahead by our dedication to the quality and innovation, and we strive to provide healthcare to the most isolated regions of the country.” asserts by Mr. Agarwal.

Dreams, Dedication, and Work-Life Balance: Mr. Agarwal’s Formula for Success

Cultivating one’s work and finding joy in it holds significant importance. ‘When you start enjoying your work, your work becomes your lifeline and it takes up a major space in your life. When you pursue your dreams through hard work, it becomes your life and your work-life equation automatically strikes a balance. The real satisfaction lies in working with a team of 4,500 people, who serve 10,000+ patients across the nation and those 25 lakh women who use your product on a daily basis.’ Mr. Agarwal explains.

‘I still feel that urge, that passion that has been driving me all these days, and with each passing day, I’d like to make my thoughts better and stronger. I believe that even today it is my humble beginning and I consider more work is still needed to be done – ‘Miles to go before I sleep…’ concludes Mr. Agarwal.

Groundbreaking Study Reveals Evolutionary Origins of Sleep in Single-Celled Algae

Cross-Kingdom Conservation of Sleep-Related Genes in Chlamydomonas Sheds Light on Fundamental Biological Process

Mysuru, Karnataka, 3 April 2025 — A groundbreaking study published in the Journal of Cellular Biochemistry has uncovered compelling evidence that sleep, a behavior once thought to be exclusive to complex organisms, may have its roots in the simplest forms of life. The research, led by an international team of scientists, identifies 112 putative sleep-related genes in the single-celled green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, suggesting that the molecular mechanisms regulating sleep have been conserved across kingdoms for over 500 million years.

Key Findings:

  • Evolutionary Conservation: The study reveals that sleep-related genes in humans share significant similarities with those in Chlamydomonas, highlighting an evolutionary continuum from unicellular organisms to mammals.
  • Novel Discoveries: Among the identified genes are previously uncharacterized proteins, such as CHLRE_16g686650v5, which exhibit high sequence similarity to human sleep genes, opening new avenues for understanding sleep regulation.
  • Functional Insights: Well-known proteins like casein kinase I (CKI) and voltage-dependent calcium channels, critical for circadian rhythms and signaling in humans, were also found in Chlamydomonas, reinforcing their pleiotropic functions.

Implications for Science and Medicine:

This research challenges traditional views of sleep as a purely neural phenomenon, proposing instead that its origins lie in fundamental cellular processes. “Our findings suggest that sleep’s essential functions—energy conservation, cellular repair, and adaptation—may have evolved early in life’s history,” said Pandi-Perumal, one of the study’s lead authors. “Our current findings related to putative sleep genes in Chlamydomonas, a flagellated autotrophic plankton, could revolutionize how we view the evolution of human sleep genes, which eventually helps to study sleep disorders and develop potential therapies by targeting conserved pathways.”

Why It Matters:

  • Model Organism: Chlamydomonas, a simple alga with a well-mapped genome, offers a powerful tool for dissecting sleep mechanisms without the complexity of animal models.
  • Future Research: The study paves the way for exploring how these putative sleep genes in single-celled organisms contribute to survival, with potential applications in neurology, chronobiology, and even synthetic biology.

Expert Commentary:

“If sleep orthologs exist in algae, it forces us to rethink its purpose,” noted Dr. Chidambaram, co-corresponding author and a professor at the Department of Pharmacology, JSS College of Pharmacy, JSS Academy of Higher Education and Research, Mysuru, Karnataka, India. “This work bridges the gap between microbiology and neuroscience, offering a unified framework to decode sleep’s mysteries through phylogenomics.”

According to Dr. Saravanan, one of the co-authors and Bioinformatics expert, “This study presents an interesting computational framework that enhances cross-genomics comparison by integrating multiple phylogenomic analysis of sleep genes such as Gene ontology, Interpro sites analysis, Repeats analysis and Pathway analysis, offering significant improvements in accuracy, efficiency, and analytical depth.”

According to Prof. Abraham, a Former Professor & Head of the Post-Graduate Department of Botany, at The American College, Madurai, who is one of the co-authors of the study said, “This is an exemplary work, even though we say it ourselves. This phylogenomics study unveils unprecedented insights into evolutionary and functional parallels between putative sleep genes of Chlamydomonas and human sleep genes.”

Overall, the results of this study present an interesting and in-depth analysis of Cross-Kingdom Genomic Conservation of Putative Human Sleep-Related Genes in Chlamydomonas, uncovering previously unreported evolutionary and functional parallels, particularly in protein kinase domains involved in the information storage and processing, providing new insights into conserved genetic elements and their implications in cellular processes.

The full study, “Cross-Kingdom Genomic Conservation of Putative Human Sleep-Related Genes: Phylogenomic Evidence From Chlamydomonas reinhardtii,” is available in the Journal of Cellular Biochemistry (2025; DOI: [https://doi.org/10.1002/jcb.70030]).

Healthcare startup CureAble raised Rs 2 Crore in pre-seed to transform neurodiverse care in India

February 19, 2025

By

 CureAble, a Delhi-based Healthcare startup, focusing on personalized therapies for special-needs children, has raised Rs2 crore in a pre-seed round from a US-based investment firm Brahma Tank.

Founded in July 2023 by childhood friends Krishnakant Singh, Arbob Mehmood, Atabik Fasahat, and Vikas Deep, CureAble aims to transform special-needs care for neurodivergent children through a planned, personalized, and trackable approach to their development.

The funds will be used to establish multiple therapy centers and special schools across India while growing their team. The roadmap also includes accelerating the development of specialized therapeutic tools and technologies, alongside community outreach initiatives. Founder Krishnakant Singh emphasizes that “These steps will transform the special needs care sector, bringing innovation and empathy to therapy-based services while revolutionizing how special-needs therapies are provided.”

Founder Vikas Deep, who also has more than 12 years of experience in special-needs therapy, says, “Every child is unique, yet therapy is often treated as a one-size-fits-all solution, leaving many without real progress. At CureAble, we take a deeply personal approach–understanding each child’s strengths, challenges, and needs–to provide therapy that truly works. Seeing children grow and connect in ways their families once feared impossible is what drives us every day,”

“Post-COVID, there’s been a sharp rise in learning disabilities and ADHD among children, driven by excessive screen time, reduced socialization, and fast-paced curriculum. Parental neglect, denial, and busy lifestyles have further fueled these challenges. Existing systems can’t support them. We need a personalized, transparent, and trackable framework to ensure consistent care during their crucial growth years.” says Founder Atabik Fasahat.

About the future of CureAble, Founder Arbob Mehmood says, “Our vision extends beyond India. In the next 5 years, we aim to impact 100 million special-needs children globally through a combination of home-based care, therapy centers, school-based programs, and technology-driven solutions like VR and app-based therapies.”

“CureAble is tackling one of the most pressing yet overlooked challenges in healthcare–ensuring that neurodivergent children receive the right support at the right time. Their data-driven and deeply personalized approach to therapy has the potential to revolutionize how therapy is delivered globally. What impressed me most is their deep commitment to both scalability and impact, ensuring that quality special-needs care is accessible across India and beyond. This investment aligns perfectly with my commitment to supporting ventures that drive social impact alongside sustainable growth.” – Gurmeet Likhari, Founder – Brahma Tank

In India, 1 in 8 children grapples with some kind of neurodivergent conditions, including millions of children with autism, ADHD, mental retardation, Down syndrome, slow learners and other developmental challenges. Shockingly, up to 80% of these children do not receive the necessary care. Globally, with over 1.2 billion people with such conditions, with global market size expected to reach USD 68.6 billion by 2028. These statistics highlight a dire need for improved special-needs care systems across the world, which CureAble, through its innovative framework, is well positioned for significant growth.
