Science-first
Evidence-led formulation thinking behind every product.
• Ontra Labs Animal Health
Trusted formulations, field systems and care platforms, starting with dairy animal health for real farm and veterinary outcomes.
Our purpose
The stakes
Every year, preventable cattle disease costs Indian dairy farmers an estimated
Behind that number is an animal that should be standing, and a household that should be holding. This loss is preventable, and that conviction is why Ontra exists.

Who we are
We build trusted products, field systems and care platforms, operating where science, access and accountability meet real-world needs. Our current focus is animal health, beginning with dairy.
Evidence-led formulation thinking behind every product.
Built for the real challenges of the farm and the clinic.
Consistent quality and performance, batch after batch.
Responsible, transparent and ethical in how we work.
The thesis
The portfolio
From milk fever and fatty liver to post-calving weakness, recovery stress, reproduction and parasite burden, built around practical veterinary needs.
Dairy Farmer’s Corner
Plain-language notes on keeping a herd healthy, written for the people who do the work.
Condition finder
Go from a symptom to the science, and the products built for it.
When cows fail to show clear signs of heat, or do not cycle at all after calving, rebreeding is delayed, calving intervals lengthen and lifetime productivity falls.
After calving, intake lags demand. Body fat mobilises faster than the liver can process it, driving ketosis, poor intake, weak heats and a slow, costly start to lactation.
Rising temperature and humidity cut dry-matter intake, suppress oestrus expression and pull down milk yield long before an animal looks visibly unwell.
Sub-clinical worm burden quietly drains condition, growth and milk. Strategic deworming, timed to the season, protects both the animal and the margin.
A lame cow eats less, walks less and breeds later. Hoof health is a productivity problem long before it becomes a treatment problem.
A vector-borne viral disease that spreads fast through a shed. Supportive care, recovery nutrition and vector control decide how much of the herd comes back.
The single largest cause of discarded milk and early culling. Sub-clinical cases cost most, because they are never seen.
At calving, calcium demand spikes. When mobilisation cannot keep pace, the cow goes down, and the risk of retained placenta, ketosis and mastitis rises with it.
Stress at milking blocks oxytocin release. Milk is made but not released, residual milk rises, and yield and udder health both suffer.
A cow that does not rise within hours of calving needs energy, minerals and nursing together. Time is the variable that decides the outcome.
Treatment ends the disease. Recovery nutrition decides whether the animal returns to full yield, or never quite gets back there.
How we work
Evidence-led formulation built around real conditions in the field, both preventive and therapeutic.
Produced at certified facilities to consistent quality and performance standards, batch after batch.
Engagement and trials with veterinary institutions and practitioners to ground products in practice.
A pan-India network that brings products reliably to veterinarians, distributors and farms.
Digital feedback loops carry real-world insight from the field back to our science teams.
In the field
Good products are only part of the story. We invest in farmer education, veterinary partnerships and field validation to make real impact on the ground.

A digital education program for dairy farmers, with videos on animal health and milk productivity.

Engagement with veterinary colleges across India, supporting the next generation of practitioners.

Product trials at leading veterinary colleges, grounding our formulations in real-world practice.
What drives us
The principles that shape everything we build.
To create measurable impact that lasts beyond the prescription, strengthening herds, livelihoods and the people who depend on them.
To deliver evidence-led, preventive and therapeutic solutions that are trusted, accessible and accountable, combining formulation science with field intelligence.
To build trusted care platforms and field systems that set new standards in animal health today, and reach further as we grow.

Technology
We build digital tools and field-intelligence systems, from voice-first field capture to traceability, that sharpen how products and knowledge reach veterinarians, partners and farms.
