Zeus Hygia Life Sciences Private Limited is a research-focused manufacturer of nutraceutical ingredients for the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetics industries. The company was incorporated in February 2010, with operations starting in 2018, and was founded by Arunkanth Krishnakumar and Shankaranarayanan Jeyakodi. The founders launched Zeus Hygia to address challenges in the traditional herbal extract market, such as poor solubility and low bioavailability, by applying modern science and technology to traditional Indian herbs.
Headquartered in Hyderabad, India, Zeus Hygia operates on a business-to-business (B2B) model, supplying clinically validated, plant-based active ingredients to wellness companies. Its clients incorporate these ingredients into their final consumer products like capsules, functional foods, and beverages. The company has developed five proprietary platform technologies and holds nine patents in India and the USA for its processes and formulations. Its product portfolio includes branded ingredients such as Grantria®, a pomegranate extract for skin health; Gremin®, for sports nutrition; Stadice®, for cognitive wellness; and Gevalin®, for gastric health.
The company's revenue for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, was ₹9.2 crore. In July 2025, Zeus Hygia secured $2.5 million in a Series A funding round led by NABVENTURES to support product development and international expansion. The company exports to over 15 countries and has established a US subsidiary, Zeus Hygia Nutra LLC, to penetrate the North American market. It aims for international markets to constitute 70% of its revenue within three years, with a focus on growing its presence in the USA, Southeast Asia, and the MENA region through direct sales and strategic partnerships.
