I feel very proud to share the recognition provided to the Ayurvedic Icon, the Managing Director of Shree Biadyanth Ayurved, Shri Ram Awtar Sharma by awarding him The “Nagarjuna” award for Quality, by our President Smt Pratibha Patil, in a grand ceremony at New Delhi on 7th of October 2009.


Baidyanath Ayurved established its presence in Eastern U.P. in the year 1963, at Naini Allahabad, by setting up a state of the art manufacturing facility spread over 30 Acres. This unit was the largest manufacturing facility of its kind in the whole world was said by none other than the first Prime Minister of Independent India Pt Jawahar Lal Nehru, on his visit to the unit in 1965. This unit boasts of manufacturing not only over 800 formulations, it also is capable of manufacturing the bulk drugs required for these formulations. Since it was the most modern unit in the Baidyanath Umbrella, it was equipped to manufacture formulations for the export market too.

Baidyanath has played a pioneering role in re-establishing ancient knowledge with modern research and manufacturing techniques and is the acknowledged leader of Ayurvedic know-how.
Led by its president Mr. Dhananjay Sharma, Baidyanath exports has moved forwards in advocating global usefulness of Ayurveda through global net works. As a result many foreign countries have began looking to India for understanding Ayurveda and incorporating it through education, research and practice to meet the overwhelming desire of consumers to access Complementary & Alternative Medicine. Its exports to U.S.A, Europe etc have played an effective role in channelling the information of Ayurveda and opening up new opportunities for the spread of Indian Medicine to foreign institutions.

The company has had a good fortune of having the blessings of many luminaries of India who lauded the efforts of Baidyanath to bring it into a large scale manufacturing for the benefit of the people. Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri, Smt Indira Gandhi, specifically recognized the contribution of Baidyanath in providing direct and indirect employment to Millions of people in this region.
