Precision engineering for formulation partners

Aashish Formulations Private Limited was incorporated in 2022 with a clear strategic mission: to establish a dedicated, modern manufacturing campus specialising in semi-finished, ready-to-fill pharmaceutical pellets for oral capsule formulations.

Rather than competing in finished consumer medicines, the business model is uncompromisingly B2B. We partner with pharmaceutical formulation companies, contract manufacturers and exporters who require dependable pellet substrates with tight potency tolerances and validated dissolution kinetics.

The facility is in the industrial cluster of IDA Gandhi Nagar, Kukatpally, Hyderabad, with regional pharmaceutical supply chains, specialised engineering talent and logistics connectivity.

To become India’s most reliable, technically rigorous B2B pellet manufacturing partner, transitioning from domestic market leadership toward international cGMP and WHO-GMP compliance.
