Is the Lab Open Today?
Yes, Sanovra Lab is open today. Unlike traditional diagnostic centers that operate on fixed 9-to-5 schedules, we understand that healthcare is a 24/7 necessity.
Whether it is a Monday morning or a Saturday night, our facility is operational to collect samples and process reports. We are committed to providing seamless service to ensure your treatment is never delayed.

Lab Opening and Closing Time
Timing is critical in diagnostics. Hormones fluctuate, fasting states change, and emergencies happen. Here is a breakdown of our operational hours.
Morning Opening Time
Sanovra Lab is Always Open, meaning there is no opening time wait. However, for specific tests, the Golden Hour for sample collection is early morning:
- Standard Labs: Usually open at 7:30 AM or 8:00 AM.
- Sanovra Lab: Open 24 Hours (Best time for fasting samples is 6:00 AM to 10:00 AM).
Evening Closing Time
Most collection centers shut down by 8:00 PM. This is difficult for working professionals who get off work late.
- Standard Labs: Close by 8:00 PM or 9:00 PM.
- Sanovra Lab: Does not close. We accept samples late at night (Walk-ins) and offer evening home collection slots.
Fasting Sample Timing
If your doctor has prescribed a Lipid Profile, Fasting Blood Sugar, or Thyroid test, timing is everything. You typically need 10-12 hours of fasting.
Recommendation: Eat your dinner by 9:00 PM and visit the lab or schedule a pickup between 7:00 AM and 9:00 AM the next morning.
Are Diagnostic Labs Open on Sunday?
This is a major pain point for patients. Most local pathology labs and collection centers remain CLOSED on Sundays.
At Sanovra Lab, Sunday is a regular working day.
We understand that for working professionals and students, Sunday is often the only free day to get a health checkup done. You can access all services, including:
- Full Body Checkups
- Blood Sugar & Diabetes Testing

- Home Sample Collection
Is Lab Open on Government Holidays?
Illness does not respect holidays. Whether it is Diwali, Eid, Christmas, or a National Holiday (like Independence Day), medical diagnostics are classified as Essential Services.
