Group Business
Lilac Group – A Knowledge Island. A Strategic Business Unit of the Tulip Group of companies. Segment-Driven Focus. Better Results. Better Profits.
Lilac is a part of the Tulip Group which started operations in Clinical Diagnostics way back in 1988.
Each group company operates as a separate Strategic Business Unit and Knowledge Island that ensures segment-driven focus, better results and better profitability.
Lilac Group is one such highly profitable Business Unit with a dedicated and focused workforce, business strategy, operational strategy and infrastructure.
In 1988, four visionaries, Dr. V K Naik, Deepak G Tripathi, N Sriram and Supratik Chakraborty, armed with just their rich experience dared to think big. The objective was to start an indigenous company in diagnostics, that would deliver products and services matching up to international standards. Their dreams gave birth to the Tulip group.
The group is divided into separate group companies. Each group company is a knowledge island focused on a particular segment of clinical diagnostics and operates as a separate Strategic Business Unit and Knowledge Island.
Each group company is a separate entity with its own infrastructure, people and operational processes. This segregation ensures segment-driven focus, sharper knowledge among employees, better customer orientation, better results and better profitability.
The group business can be largely divided into the Manufacturing Arm and the Distribution (Sales & Marketing) Arm. The Tulip setup at Goa is solely dedicated towards manufacturing. Lilac Group headquartered at Mumbai is the Distribution (Sales & Marketing) Arm.
In the past, there was a dearth of world-class and cutting-edge diagnostic products and technologies owing to the absence of such focused manufacturers in India.
Lilac decided to bridge this gap and partnered with some of the masters of the International Clinical Diagnostics industry and made state-of-the-art products and technologies available to Indian laboratories. The best of international products and technologies are selected and marketed in India by Lilac Group.
Today as the Indian economy is galloping at neck-breaking speed, The Tulip group with its multidimensional approach to cater to Indian diagnostic needs, stands at the helm of enormous opportunities for business partners, both national and international. The dream gets bigger, for at Tulip group, the belief is the sky is not the limit.
