The Ludhiana market is shaped by the world's largest generics industry, Hyderabad's Genome Valley, the Mumbai and Ahmedabad pharma belts and fast-growing private hospital chains. Our recruiters and moderators know these stakeholders and the compliance rules that govern talking to them.
We are headquartered in India, so our India teams run fieldwork in English, Hindi and major regional languages, across both metro and tier-2 markets.

Fieldwork
How fieldwork runs in Ludhiana
Four stages from brief to readout. The recruitment and fieldwork steps change with the market — panel reach is mixed with direct local outreach here.
- 01
Scope, screener and feasibility
We turn your objectives into inclusion criteria, quotas and a screener, then sanity-check feasibility against who is genuinely reachable in Ludhiana before anything goes to field.
Day 0–1
- 02
Local recruitment in Ludhiana
Panels thin out outside the metros, so recruitment in Ludhiana mixes panel reach with direct outreach to clinics, hospitals, labs and trade contacts, coordinated from Chandigarh. Every respondent is verified on licence, practice setting and decision role, and screened for conflicts and confidentiality.
24–48 hours for expert calls
- 03
Consent, language and moderation
Consent is recorded before anything is asked. Sessions are moderated in Punjabi, Hindi and English; transcripts and deliverables come back in English. In-person work in Ludhiana is run by travelling field teams on scheduled visits; video and telephone cover the rest, which keeps smaller samples economical.
5–10 business days to field
- 04
Quality control, analysis and readout
Open ends and recordings are back-checked, outliers re-contacted and data cleaned before analysis. You get a decision-ready readout with verbatims, plus adverse-event and product-complaint reporting handled inside agreed timelines.
Debrief and report
Compliance
The rules a Ludhiana study runs under
Healthcare research is not general market research. These are the codes and laws that shape screeners, honoraria, consent and reporting.
CDSCO
Studies touching regulated products are scoped against CDSCO rules, so nothing we field solicits off-label promotion or unapproved claims.
UCPMP
The Uniform Code for Pharmaceutical Marketing Practices governs how companies engage healthcare professionals. Honoraria and engagement terms in Ludhiana are set to stay inside it.
DPDP Act 2023
India's data-protection law. Consent is recorded, personal data is minimised, and respondent identities are kept separate from the deliverables you receive.
EphMRA and BHBIA
International healthcare market research codes, including adverse-event and product-complaint reporting inside agreed timelines.
Local context
What makes research in Ludhiana different
Ludhiana sits in Punjab, known for a strong hospital and medical-devices market with high healthcare spending. That shapes who is reachable locally and how a study has to be run.
Teaching-hospital density
Medical colleges and teaching hospitals concentrate senior specialists, department heads and residents in a small radius — useful for specialty depth and KOL mapping.
Corporate hospital networks
Large private hospital groups operate in Ludhiana, so clinicians can be paired with the procurement, value-analysis and administration layers that sign purchases off.
Tier-2 reach without metro bias
Most national panels over-sample metros. We recruit in Ludhiana directly, so tier-2 prescribing and purchasing behaviour is represented rather than inferred from metro data.
Moderation in Punjabi, Hindi and English
Clinicians, pharmacists and patients answer more fully in their own language. Sessions are moderated in Punjabi, Hindi and English and delivered back in English.
