Who we are
In 1984, from the garage of his home, Dr. V. Raghavendra started Mayura Enterprises with Rs. 1 as starting capital to manufacture credible import substitutes of analytical equipments to match international standards. The company, now Mayura Analytical LLP has organically grown from its humble beginnings to cater to a large number of industries such as Pharmaceutical, Food and Beverage, Education and Research, Energy, and Chemical and Environment. Forerunners in “Made in India” Gas Chromatography and Titrators, we have expanded our product offerings to serve the Indian market with locally produced equipment in Bangalore, Karnataka. Unparalleled in India in specification of equipment, application in analyses, accuracy of results and efficiency of operations, we provide solutions to users at Indian cost with equipment that can withstand Indian conditions. Our equipment have been tested to the limit when measuring gas composition at 8 different coal mines at the Singarini Colleries Ltd., Telengana at 500C ambient temperature or running dissolved gas analyses in transformer oil in the mountains of Bhutan at sub-zero temperatures at Chukka Hydroelectric project, Bhutan.
​
Often, our equipment compete with American or German import alternatives but provide the same or better results with a personalised, high touch service model at a reduced purchase and operating costs. We believe that we are at least as good as our products and therefore, we are committed to building a trusting relationship with our clients. Our customers usually describe the problem or the analyses they are trying to conduct, leaving the methodology, process and equipment needed for us to resolve. We believe in constantly evolving our equipment to meet user requirements but our approach stands steadfast in providing solution focussed advice and consultation.
As recognised suppliers of analytical equipment to the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore and Indian Institute of Technology (IIT, All India), preeminent research and technology institutions of India as well as large chemical industries such as BIOCON, we have cemented our standing in the market with our cutting edge expertise.
Dr. V. Raghavendra
Dr. V. Raghavendra is the founder of Mayura Analytical LLP. Raghavendra is a practical physicist by training, having obtained his MSc. in Physics from Manasa Gangotri, Mysore University and a PhD in Spectrascopy, Physics from UDCT, Bombay University (now known as Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai). Post his PhD., he joined National Physical Laboratory as scientist on solar energy material characterisation and carbon fiber preparation. He went on to head the Analytical Chemistry department at Amar Dye Chem, Mumbai followed by a similar post at Standard Alkali, Mafatlals, Mumbai. His fascination for Chemistry Instrumentation led him to lead Waters Associates, (now known as Waters India Private Limited) as their All India Manager, providing Liquid Chromatography solutions to companies and institutions across the country. Witnessing firsthand the lack of credible indigenous alternative for analytical equipments in India, he quit Waters in 1984 and started Mayura Enterprises to focus on building a brand that offered reliable import substitutes that could match international standards, at a local cost. Thus, the journey of creating ‘Made in India’ products for companies and institutions in India started. Raghavendra evolved the firm from its nascent beginnings in the garage of his home to a renowned organization that provides analytical solutions for research and manufacturing companies and institutions across the country. The firm later evolved to Mayura Analytical Pvt. Ltd. and then, taking its latest form as Mayura Analytical LLP. Raghavendra calls himself a retired scientist with a passion for innovation and problem solving. This has allowed him to build associations with clients that transcend the transactional relationships to building partnerships that provide analytical support and advice to clients to help them first and foremost succeed in their endeavours
