Laxhar Evidence Labs Private Limited in Noida has achieved accreditation from the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) for forensic testing. This makes it the first private forensic laboratory in India to secure accreditation across multiple forensic disciplines simultaneously. The accreditation includes digital forensics, physical forensics, and crime scene management, ensuring compliance with international standards.
The company also claims to be the first forensic laboratory in Uttar Pradesh, both in the government and private sectors, to receive NABL accreditation for forensic testing. Indrajeet Rai, Director of Forensic Services at Laxhar Evidence Labs, expressed that this accreditation is not only a significant achievement for the company but also for every individual seeking justice through science. He emphasized the company’s vision to make accredited forensic services accessible to a wider audience beyond government agencies.
NABL, an autonomous accreditation body under the Quality Council of India, evaluates laboratories for technical competence and adherence to quality standards before granting accreditation. Laxhar Evidence Labs highlighted that this accreditation will allow individuals, corporates, legal professionals, and investigating agencies to access accredited forensic examination services. These services include digital and mobile device forensics, document examination, handwriting and signature analysis, fingerprint examination, audio and video forensics, cloud forensics, crime scene investigation, and Technical Surveillance Counter-Measures (TSCM).
The company ensures that forensic examinations and expert opinions are provided in line with the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023, for use in legal and investigative proceedings, subject to relevant laws and regulations.
