The company provides integrated healthcare services—including e-pharmacy, e-diagnostics, and tele-consultation—through a digital platform and a growing network of physical retail pharmacies and diagnostic laboratories across India.[5][6]

History

[edit]

In 2012, Bright Lifecare Private Limited launched a digital health platform called HealthkartPlus.[12] In 2015, HealthkartPlus was spun off to form 1MG Technologies Private Limited.[13] Healthkart continued as a separate entity focused on fitness and nutrition products; while 1mg operated as a generic drug search and price comparison platform.[14]

The company subsequently developed an online medicine database providing information on drug usage, side effects and generic substitutes, and expanded into home delivery of prescription and over-the-counter medicines as well as diagnostic testing services.[15]

In June 2021, Tata Digital Ltd. acquired a majority stake of approximately 55% in 1mg, after which the platform was rebranded as Tata 1mg and integrated into the Tata Group's digital ecosystem.[16]

In 2023, Tata 1mg was reported to hold approximately 31% of the Indian e-pharmacy market by GMV, making it the largest e-pharmacy platform in India at that time.[17]

In 2024, Tata 1mg and Vitonnix UK jointly introduced Vitamin Sublingual Sprays in Indian market. The first phase of the launch includes vitamin D, multivitamins, biotin, and melatonin.[18]

In December 2025, the company reported positive EBITDA across its core business lines.[6]
