About UsA pioneer in Ayurvedic healthcare since 1917.

Gurukul Ayurved Pharmacy, previously known as Gurukul Mahavidyalaya Jwalapur Pharmacy, was started over 100 years ago with a simple objective: to make sure that high quality does not mean high cost.

Our story

Founded by Swami Darshanand with the scholars of Gurukul Mahavidyalaya.

Swami Darshanand established this Pharmacy with the help of top scholars from Gurukul Mahavidyalaya, the number one Ayurvedic college of that time. Their research, together with the experience of some of the most trusted and respected Vaidyas (medical scholars) of India, helped create Gurukul's patented formulations and serve customers all over India.

Since then, Gurukul has become an acknowledged leader in Ayurvedic formulations. It has manufactured products for leading herbal brands, and continues to do so for brands like Sri Sri Ayurveda, Swabhuti Mission and a few others.

Gurukul is led by a family with a 100-year-old legacy of practising Ayurveda, working towards excellence in the field of Ayurveda while keeping service as its core objective.
