The company’s Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Depreciation (EBITDA) was up 30% YoY to ₹53.7 crore, while margins dropped to 25.3% from 26.8% in Q1 FY24. The drop in EBITDA margin was attributed to operating losses due to newly commissioned hospital at Faridabad.

We continue to attract renowned doctors and leading specialists from across the NCR, further strengthening our brand and advancing our centers of excellence.
