Hyderabad, India – Deccan Health Care Limited (DHCL), established in 1996, stands as one of India’s pioneering innovators in the field of nutraceuticals, herbaceuticals, and cosmeceuticals. Founded and led by Dr. Minto Purshotam, Chairman and Managing Director, the company has been at the forefront of developing science-backed, non-medicine health care ingredients designed to enhance quality of life and overall wellbeing.
With its corporate office in Hyderabad, Telangana, and R&D, innovation, and manufacturing facilities at IIE, SIDCUL, Pantnagar, Uttarakhand, Deccan Health Care combines scientific research with nature’s healing potential to deliver safe, effective, and ready-to-use health products.
Commitment to Innovation and Quality
Since its inception, Deccan Health Care has been dedicated to developing nutraceutical, herbaceutical, and cosmeceutical solutions that are both evidence-based and consumer-friendly. The company’s unique approach integrates every stage of production—from the cultivation and sourcing of high-quality herbs to advanced manufacturing and quality testing—ensuring consistent efficacy and safety in every product.
With over 1,500 formulated products, DHCL has built a comprehensive portfolio that addresses the modern “Nutrient Crisis,” offering natural solutions to bridge gaps in nutrition and promote holistic wellness. Each product is developed through extensive R&D and formulated using potent, synergistically active ingredients that deliver measurable health benefits.
What Sets Deccan Health Care Apart
Unlike many in the industry, Deccan Health Care was founded by a bio-scientist, giving the company an authentic scientific foundation. Over nearly three decades, DHCL has honed its expertise in developing innovative, clinically supported formulations. Its products are built upon the philosophy that health should be preventive, proactive, and rooted in natural science.
What truly distinguishes DHCL is its ability to combine traditional herbal knowledge with modern biotechnology. The result is a range of synergistically blended, ready-to-consume products that are safe, effective, and scientifically validated. From capsules and powders to convenient ready-to-eat formulations, each offering is designed to deliver tangible improvements in wellbeing.
Breakthrough Achievements
Throughout its journey, Deccan Health Care has achieved several industry-first milestones:
- Omega-3 Innovation (1990s): Developed India’s first indigenous Omega-3 ready-to-eat product, providing Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA), EPA, and DHA at a time when such supplements were largely imported.
- Vitamin D Advancement: Created a locally produced vitamin D capsule in a natural base, designed for maximum absorption and efficacy in addressing widespread deficiencies.
- Herbal Iron Formula: Formulated an all-natural iron supplement derived from herbs and seeds—an effective, chemical-free alternative to conventional iron tablets.
These innovations reflect DHCL’s unwavering focus on scientific integrity, consumer safety, and accessibility.
Serving a Health-Conscious Generation
DHCL’s customers span a wide demographic—from adolescents and young adults to middle-aged individuals—who are increasingly aware of the importance of preventive health. Modern lifestyles often contribute to nutrient deficiencies and reduced vitality; DHCL’s product range directly addresses these gaps by offering natural nutrient solutions that enhance wellbeing and reduce the risk of chronic health concerns.
New Launches and Innovations
Staying true to its tradition of innovation, Deccan Health Care recently introduced ENERGYDECC, a revolutionary, sugar-free energy booster. Unlike conventional energy drinks that rely on high sugar content, ENERGYDECC is a clean, potent, and safe alternative formulated to enhance physical and mental energy without side effects—meeting the needs of today’s health-conscious consumers.
