As Managing Director of S K Meditech Private Limited, Anand Shekhar Singh is leading EcoHerb, an Ayurvedic health and wellness brand built on a simple but demanding promise: that every formulation should be traceable, lab-tested, and verifiable — not just marketed on trust.
APhilosophyofSubstanceOverClaims
Singh’s approach to building EcoHerb starts from a single question: how do you make something genuinely good, not just something that looks good on a label? That instinct shows up as an insistence that every formulation be AYUSH-licensed and that select products undergo independent lab testing before they ever reach a customer’s hands.
“Itisthereputationthatonebuildsthattrulymatters,”Singh often says
— a philosophy that anchors EcoHerb’s approach to an industry where reputation is often in short supply. Ayurveda has never lacked passionate believers. What it has lacked, particularly in the crowded world of e-commerce, is a consistent, verifiable standard that a first-time buyer can trust without simply taking a brand’s word for it.
WhyEcoHerb,WhyNow
India’s wellness market has embraced Ayurveda enthusiastically over the last several years, but that enthusiasm has come with a cost: a flood of products carrying vague “100% natural” claims with little behind them. For Singh, the opportunity was clear — real, growing demand for Ayurvedic wellness, but too few brands willing to meet that demand with real accountability.
EcoHerb’s response is a simple idea, executed rigorously: Ayurveda you canverify.Everybatchisintendedtobetraceablebacktoitssource, everyformulationgroundedinclassicalAyurvedicprinciplesbutbacked bydocumentedlabtestingratherthantraditionalone.
TheR&DBehindthePromise
None of this is possible without the team working quietly behind EcoHerb’s product line. Singh has built a well-regarded in-house Research & Development team tasked with formulating, testing, and continuously refining EcoHerb’s range of 18 products across immunity, digestive health, liver support,jointcare,andothereverydaywellnesscategories.
The team’s role goes beyond following classical Ayurvedic texts. Each formulation is developed with an eye toward standardization — ensuring that the product a customer buys today is identical in composition and potency to the one they reorder months later — and validated through lab testing before it reaches the shelf. It is this R&D discipline that allows EcoHerb to make a claim most Ayurvedic brands cannot: thatitsformulationsarenotjust traditional, but documented, repeatable, and verifiable batch after batch.
For Singh, this is non-negotiable. Marketingcanbuildinitialinterestina wellnessbrand,butonlyrealformulationscienceandconsistentquality cansustainacustomer’strust— and it is this belief that has shaped EcoHerb’s R&D-first approach to product development from the outset.
FarmtoR&DFormulation
Under Singh guidance, EcoHerb has organized its entire brand identity around a single narrative thread: Farm to R&D Formulation.

BuildingfortheLongTerm
EcoHerb currently reaches customers through its own website www.ecoherb.in and through major e-commerce marketplaces Flipkartand Amazon,with immunity, digestive health, and dailywellness formulationsformingthecoreofitsrange. But Singh has been clear internally that the marketplace is only the first mile.
That plan includes equipping with evidence — lab reports and batch traceability — rather than sales pressure, and giving pharmacists a genuine business case, not just a product to shelve.
