Made in Gujarat Brands Taking India’s Name to the Global Stage

The Brand That Put Gujarat’s Pharma Sector on the Global Map

From Specialty Pharmaceuticals to Renewable Energy, Claris Group and Abellon Symbolize Gujarat’s Industrial Strength

When people discuss Gujarat’s industrial growth, they often think of large business houses. However, one such family-run enterprise has consistently set benchmarks across diverse sectors. That is the Claris Group, which has grown from being a leading specialty pharmaceutical company to becoming a key player in renewable energy through Abellon.

The journey began with Claris Lifesciences, which became one of India’s leading specialty pharmaceutical companies. During its peak, Claris generated annual revenues of over USD 500 million and was listed on both the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE). This remarkable success established Gujarat’s pharmaceutical sector as a significant force on the global stage.

Today, through Abellon Clean Energy, the group is driving progress in renewable energy, logistics, recycling, and sustainable infrastructure. Beyond business growth, the company remains deeply committed to environmental responsibility, social development, and cultural preservation.

“The name Abellon itself reflects our philosophy. It represents a balance between technology and humanity. Our mission is not only to create energy but also to create a meaningful and lasting impact on society,” says Arjun Handa, Chairman, Claris Group.

“We believe that business is not just about growth—it is also about creating value. We are committed to promoting innovation, supporting entrepreneurship, and contributing to Gujarat’s progress. We strive to leave behind a legacy that benefits both future generations and society as a whole.”
