A silent revolution has unfolded in the quiet corners of Surat, Gujarat. Davaindia is not Just living the promise of quality healthcare but also accessibility of affordable medicine to every Indian, and this is the world that Davaindia Generic Pharmacy (an initiative of Zota Healthcare Ltd) is creating. Since its founding in 2017, Davaindia has rapidly become a name synonymous with trust, compassion, and smart healthcare choices. With over 1,500+ outlets across India, it is not just selling medicines—it’s restoring dignity to millions who once had to choose between treatment and survival.
The unsung hero behind this transformation is Dr.Sujit Paul, Group CEO of Zota Healthcare Ltd. He is a seasoned expert with over 25 years of leadership across healthcare, retail, and FMCG sectors, Dr. Paul’s career includes pivotal roles at Reliance, Apollo Pharmacy, and Columbia Asia Hospital, among others.
Dr. Paul’s vision is deeply human. “We’re not just a pharmacy chain. We’re a movement,” he often speaks. In India, where more than 60% of out-of-pocket health expenditure is on medicines, this reality often hits the hardest among low and middle-income families. But Davaindia is rewriting this script. It promotes generic medicines with maximum savings than their overly hyped counterparts.
Davaindia believes in healthcare that’s way more than hefty prescriptions lists. It has created a one stop shop for holisitic wellness, offering OTC products, gym essentials, Ayurvedic formulations, nutraceuticals, and even Khadi India products. Davaindia R&D team is constantly trying to stay ahead of industry trends while meeting the evolving needs of Indian consumers.
Having said so, it has recently launched Davaindia mobile app to bring healthcare to customers’ fingertips
— a unique amalgamation of convenience and trust.
Under the able guidance of Dr. Paul, Davaindia has made it possible to bring a huge transition in rural India. Now a daily wage earner also in rural India can buy medicines worth a month, a Single bread earner can afford antibiotics for their child without sacrificing household essentials, also a senior citizen with hypertension finds relief not just in the medication, but in the compassion of the Davaindia pharmacist who explains the dosage patiently.
These are not rare stories but life-changing realities that Davaindia stores provide across India.
Davaindia’s contribution to Indian healthcare hasn’t gone unnoticed. Davaindia has earned the Pharmacy Retailer of the Year by IREC, Best Organisation for Innovation by ET Now, and consistent recognition as an Amazing Workplaces (2024 &2025)
Dr. Paul himself has been honored globally, including as one of the “Top 10 CEOs in Healthcare” by CEO Insights and “India’s Impactful CEO” by Times Now.
But these are not the finish lines. The vision is bigger. With initaives like Project Sanjeevani and #Change, #Care for all, Dr. Paul showcases Davaindia’s grassroots commitment to educating communities and expanding access to generic medicines.
Davaindia is just not about medicines. It stands for empowerment, dignity, and a better tomorrow. As it steps boldly into the future, it stands as a beacon of what healthcare should be: equal, ethical, and empowering.
For the greater world, where everything is about price and privilege, Davaindia offers a promise that medical care is not expensive anymore!
