The charges mentioned above are inclusive of all applicable taxes, including Service Tax at a rate of 18%. The costs of consumables and sample preparation required for analysis are also included in the charges. Additionally, Rs. 100/- will be levied for postal or email services related to the analysis report. For users who require a hard copy of the invoice, please ensure that your payment details form includes your complete postal address with the PIN code and a valid contact number. The standard heating rate for Thermal analysis is 10 deg/min. However, in case of a heating rate lower than the average rate, an additional charge may be applied on an hourly basis.

Notice for DSC Users.

We would like to inform you that in order to ensure the safe and efficient operation of our DSC instrument, we request all users to submit decomposition temperature data or TGA analysis reports up to 300°C, especially for materials such as polymers that tend to decompose below this temperature. It is important to note that the sensors and furnaces of the DSC instrument are highly sensitive and expensive, and are not designed for decomposition studies. Therefore, we kindly request that users provide the necessary TGA data for their samples to prevent damage to the instrument and ensure accurate results. Please note that if the user fails to provide the TGA graph or the decomposition temperature of the samples of the kind mentioned above, an additional cost of Rs 590/- will be charged towards TG analysis up to 300°C
