Reliance Group has decided to drastically reduce the prices of ‘genomic testing’, which is used to detect fatal diseases early, and make it accessible to the common man.  Ambani is planning to bring down the prices of these tests, which are currently more than Rs. 10,000 in the market, to less than Rs. 1,000.

Genomic tests are tests that analyze a person’s genetic sequence (DNA).  These tests can predict the risk of future diseases like cancer, heart disease and diabetes.  Until now, these tests were very expensive and were limited to the wealthy.
