About

In 2016, we founded DrinkPrime with the mission of increasing water purification penetration in Indian households from just 10% to 80%. Today, DrinkPrime is India’s most-loved water purifier subscription service; unlike traditional water purifiers we don't ask for hefty up-front costs and recurring maintenance charges; rather we offer affordable easy monthly subscription plans, where customers can pay only for the water they consume. 2.5 lakh families, across 9 cities- trust DrinkPrime to stay healthy and hydrated without any worries! We’re just getting started to provide clean, safe, and healthy drinking water to every Indian family!
