Dr. Lal PathLabs boots genomics capabilities with Illumina's NovaSeq™ X Series
By Aman Shukla Published on June 25, 2025, 11:39 IST
Dr. Lal PathLabs Limited (DLPL), one of India's most trusted names in diagnostics, has taken a major step forward in genomics by adding the advanced NovaSeq™ X Series from Illumina to its dedicated genomics unit, Genevolve.
This cutting-edge technology allows DLPL to deliver faster and more accurate results in genetic research. The NovaSeq™ X system, powered by Illumina's XLEAP-SBS™ chemistry, offers top-notch performance with high speed, accuracy, and sustainability. In fact, the NovaSeq X Plus can handle over 20,000 whole genomes per year—twice as much as earlier models.
Genevolve, launched in 2019, has quickly made a name for itself as a leader in DNA-based diagnostics and next-generation sequencing (NGS). With the new Illumina platform onboard, DLPL is now even better equipped to offer quick, AI-driven insights that can support smarter healthcare decisions.
'With the addition of Illumina's NovaSeq X Series, we are taking another step forward in driving innovation and scientific excellence,' said Shankha Banerjee, CEO, Dr. Lal PathLabs Limited. 'This investment allows us to broaden our capabilities and contribute meaningfully to India's evolving genomics landscape.'
Looking ahead, Dr. Lal PathLabs and Illumina plan to work closely with India's medical and research communities to promote the use of genomics in healthcare, helping unlock new possibilities in personalized medicine.

Cochin Shipyard secures order for two 70 T Bollard Pull Tugs from Polestar Maritime
Cochin Shipyard Limited (CSL), one of India's premier shipbuilders, has recently informed exchanges that the company secured a fresh order from Polestar Maritime Limited for the construction of two powerful 70-ton Bollard Pull Tugs. These vessels are expected to be delivered in May 2027 and September 2027, respectively. This new order comes on top of three similar tugs already under construction by Udupi Cochin Shipyard Limited (Udupi-CSL), a wholly owned CSL subsidiary. Polestar Maritime, a well-known name in harbour tug services and marine assistance across ports, is expanding its fleet with high-performance, India-built vessels. The tugs will be built based on designs by Robert Allan Ltd., a global leader in tugboat design. Both CSL and Udupi-CSL are playing a key role in bringing these advanced tug designs to India under the Government of India's Approved Standard Tug Design and Specifications (ASTDS) framework—part of the broader 'Atma Nirbhar Bharat' initiative to boost local manufacturing. The vessels will be jointly constructed at CSL's Cochin yard under a work-share model with Udupi-CSL. Each tug will be powered by twin 1838 kW engines and 2.7-meter propellers supplied by Niigata IHI Power Systems, Japan. With four tugs already delivered and 20 more—18 regular and 2 green tugs—in the pipeline, CSL continues to make steady progress in strengthening India's shipbuilding capabilities.

Jim Cramer Says Stay Away from This High-Yield Dividend Stock
Jim Cramer was asked about payments and data company Deluxe Corporation (NYSE: DLX) in a recent program. Here is what he said: "You said it right. They have been talking diversification for as long as I can remember. They came on the show once. They have an 8% yield. That means that something's very wrong. When you get a yield that's well above all the others, it's not good. I'm going to have to say X-nay Deluxe Corp (NYSE:DLX) . I wish they had been able to—one of the great growth stocks of the '80s." While we acknowledge the potential of DLX as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
