Established in 1982, Choksi Laboratories Limited (CLL), is more widely known as a leading analysis and research group, providing complete solutions for improving quality in processes, products and services.

CLL is a contract testing and analysis laboratory based in Indore, Central India. It analyzes, for its clients, or as a regulatory requirement, pharmaceuticals, food and agricultural products, construction materials, chemicals etc. It also help industries in their research processes. Its environment consultancy division helps firms in keeping the environment clean and free from pollution.

CLL was the first to develop Vendor Assessment programme in the edible oil extraction industry. The first to start water and soil analysis in Central India, also the first to start instrument calibration services for organizations that were targeting ISO certification or had already achieved it. The only one to commission and run, probably the largest Effluent Treatment Plant in India, at ONGC's Amod oil rig.

Quality products are a function of better raw materials and quality procedures.  CLL currently has facilities for analysis of over 1000 products and materials, with more being added every day.

A vast updated database of test specifications derived from AOAC, USP, BP, CP, EP, IP, IS, EPA, PFA, Food Chemicals Codex, AOCS, and several in-house methods, serves a wide spectrum of products and materials – pharmaceutical raw materials and formulations, agro products and their derivatives, fertilizers, pesticides, edible and industrial oils, chemicals, paints and dyes.

Last year, CLL provided its services to more than 1,000 customers world-wide. Driving this accelerated growth is a hard-working people-force of 200+ CLL personnel. They are young (The average age in CLL is below 30 years). They are determined. And they have a huge appetite for learning. Mostly from the University town of Indore, these graduates undergo a rigorous six month training at their lab. Once inducted, continuous training programmes take over - both internal as well as external. And finally the long painful process of getting these qualified personnel approved as FDA, BIS, MoEF - whatever their respective fields demand. In fact, one thing that they are quite known for is their excellent human resource pool. So much so that the surrounding companies keep playing bait to our experienced staff. Though it is quite a nuisance at times, it also does us proud when they are recognized and accepted in regional companies, and multinationals alike.
