Hyderabad, India, September 2026 — Mohit Shrivastava, AVP – Research & Consulting at Coherent Market Insights (CMI), will take the stage at analytica Lab India 2026 on September 11 to explore a question that is becoming increasingly relevant across India's laboratory ecosystem: how far have automation and AI actually penetrated the country's labs, and how far is there still to go?
The session, scheduled from 2:00 PM to 2:30 PM at Hall 5, is titled "Lab 5.0 in India: Laboratory Automation, Informatics and AI Market Opportunity, 2026–2033." It draws directly from CMI's new market intelligence report, prepared for the analytica Lab India audience of laboratory administrators, instrumentation providers, informatics vendors, and decision-makers considering their next investments in digital laboratory infrastructure.
The need for a dedicated discussion lies in the uneven pace of Lab 5.0 adoption across India. A large pharmaceutical QC lab in an established manufacturing hub may already be using integrated LIMS and automated sample handling, while a comparable research lab elsewhere may still be working through basic digitization. Similarly, AI adoption in analytical instrumentation is moving faster than its use in lab operations and workflow management. Shrivastava's session will examine these differences directly rather than presenting a single adoption curve for Indian laboratories as a whole.
Immediately following the presentation, Shrivastava will moderate a 50-minute CXO panel, "India's Laboratory & Scientific Ecosystem: Accelerating Innovation through Advanced Analytical Technologies, Digital Laboratories, and Industry Collaboration." The panel will bring together Dr. Ramesh Jagadeesan of Aragen Life Sciences, Dr. Jugnu Jain of Sapien Biosciences, Appasaheb Kandagal of Smilax Laboratories, and Venkat Kamalakar Bundla of Garphi Biosciences. Together, the two sessions represent CMI's core contribution as Knowledge Partner for this year's event.
The CMI team will also be available at Hall 4, Booth B75, for conversations with attendees interested in the underlying research, market entry strategies, or competitive positioning within India's laboratory technology space.
analytica Lab India 2026 will take place from September 10 to September 12, 2026, at the HITEX Exhibition Centre in Hyderabad and is organized by Messe Muenchen India Pvt. Ltd.
