Normal Ranges

With the Honest Explanation

Reference ranges vary between laboratories. This is not a quality issue — it is because each lab calibrates its instruments and methods using different populations, reagents, and equipment. A result of 5.5 at one lab may show as slightly different at another. What matters is: (1) always using the same lab for serial monitoring, (2) understanding your trend over time, not just one reading. Gini's ranges are calibrated on our specific instruments and validated monthly against international reference samples. Read the full explanation →

Result	Range	Clinical Meaning
SGPT (ALT) — Normal	7–40 U/L	Normal liver cell health
SGOT (AST) — Normal	10–40 U/L	Normal liver and cardiac muscle health
Bilirubin — Normal	0.3–1.2 mg/dL	Normal bile metabolism
Albumin — Normal	3.5–5.0 g/dL	Normal liver protein production

Indian-Specific Context

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) affects 25–30% of Indians — more than most Western populations at equivalent weight. It is strongly associated with diabetes and insulin resistance. Dr. Bhansali screens all diabetic patients for fatty liver.

Result Interpretation

What Your Result Means

If Your Result Is High

Price & Why Accuracy Matters

More Than a Lab — A Hospital Lab

Gini's LFT (Liver Function Tests — Full Panel) costs ₹550. Budget standalone labs charge less. The difference is not just equipment — it is what happens when your result is abnormal.

At a standalone lab, you get a report. At Gini, if your LFT is significantly abnormal, our team flags it to Dr. Anil Bhansali's office. You are not alone with a concerning number.

This is what a hospital lab means vs a standalone diagnostic centre. More on Gini's lab quality →
