The firm's customer base is heavily institutional and government-oriented, including Central and State government departments, leading hospitals (AIIMS, Batra, BLK, Tata Memorial), defense and paramilitary forces (BSF, CRPF), premier educational institutions (BHU, Delhi University, IIT Delhi), and Indian Railways. Commercial activity is conducted through direct B2B sales and government tender procurement.
