History edit
The company was founded in 1995 by brothers Shivinder Mohan Singh and Malvinder Mohan Singh as SRL Ranbaxy, a division of Ranbaxy Laboratories.[5] It became the first pathology company in India to receive accreditation from National Accreditation Board.[6]
In 2008, SRL Ranbaxy was renamed as Super Religare Laboratories.[7]
In 2010, SRL acquired Piramal Diagnostic Services and its network of 107 laboratories from Piramal Healthcare for ₹600 crore.[8]
In 2011, Fortis Healthcare completed the acquisition of 74.59% stake in SRL.[9] After being acquired by Fortis, the company rebranded itself as SRL Diagnostics.[10]
In 2021, SRL acquired the remaining stake in its Kerala-based joint venture, DDRC, for ₹350 crore. With the addition of DDRC's 220 labs to its lab network, SRL became the biggest pathology lab chain in India with a total of 430 labs.[11]
In 2023, SRL Diagnostics changed its name to Agilus Diagnostics.[12]
