Happiest Diagnostics, a unit of Happiest Health, has received accreditation from the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL). The accreditation was achieved within two years of inception.
Ashok Soota, Chairman & Chief Strategy Officer, Happiest Health, said, “Our vision is to build a future-ready diagnostics platform governed by strong quality systems, capable of handling complex biological data, and scalable for advanced testing needs. This milestone strengthens our foundation to systematically expand into molecular, genomic, and preventive diagnostics, supporting how medicine will increasingly be practiced over the next decade.”
A company release informed that NABL accreditation provides a strong foundation for the continued expansion of the company’s accredited test menu and supports its progressive move into advanced diagnostics, including molecular and genomic testing. The diagnostic roadmap is aligned with preventive, predictive, and personalised healthcare needs, with an emphasis on introducing rare and clinically significant tests that remain under-available in routine diagnostic settings.
Davis Karedan, Co-Chairman & COO, Happiest Health, added, “For us, NABL accreditation is not just a regulatory milestone—it directly impacts the Atithi experience. It assures patients and clinicians that every report is built on rigor, consistency, and trust. As diagnostics becomes central to clinical decision-making, our focus is on delivering an experience that is accurate, transparent, and dependable at every touchpoint—from sample collection to interpretation. This accreditation reinforces our commitment to making advanced diagnostics both clinically reliable and patient-centric.”
The release also mentioned that Happiest Diagnostics is concurrently building a large reference laboratory that will expand its accredited test portfolio—nearly tripling its current offerings—while enabling advanced and specialised testing capabilities. The reference lab is envisioned as a central hub for quality, standardisation, and complex diagnostics, supporting the organisation’s next phase of growth across molecular, genomic, and data-intensive testing.
It further mentioned that Happiest Diagnostics has also introduced Gut Microbiome Testing, leveraging high-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics to analyse over 5 GB of microbial genomic data per sample. This data-intensive test provides clinically relevant insights into digestive health, metabolic balance, immune modulation, and overall wellness, reinforcing the organisation’s focus on preventive, predictive, and personalised diagnostics.
Dr Bikash Kumar Chaudhury, CEO & Senior VP, Happiest Diagnostics said “Receiving NABL accreditation validates the strength of our quality and clinical frameworks, reinforcing confidence in the accuracy and reliability of our reports. This milestone supports the expansion of our clinical offerings, particularly in advanced and data-intensive diagnostics, while ensuring complex biological data is governed responsibly.”
Happiest Diagnostics plans continued investments in automation, quality systems, and advanced diagnostics.
