Revenue guidance

Category 3
  • Medanta expects continued strong growth in patient volumes, evidenced by 14% inpatient and 13% outpatient volume growth year-on-year in Q1 FY26.
  • Developing hospitals such as Lucknow and Patna show significant momentum towards operational maturity with increasing occupancy and volumes.
  • Expansion projects (South Delhi, Mumbai, Pitampura) are progressing, though expected commissioning timelines are uncertain; FY 2029-2030 is a tentative target.
  • New hospitals and bed capacity expansion (e.g., Noida starting with 300 beds scaling up, Ranchi expansion) will further drive volume growth.
  • Growth in revenue driven by a mix of higher realizations, more complex procedures (like oncology, robotic surgeries), and improved specialty mix.
  • International patient revenue, especially from Gurugram, is growing but remains a smaller portion of revenue.
  • Acquisition strategy is open to complement organic growth, focusing on quality assets that fit Medanta’s ecosystem.
  • Continued investment in technology and hospital build-out expected to support long-term revenue growth.

  • ARPOB growth in mature hospitals expected at 3%-7% annually, supported by increased realization and operational efficiencies (Page 12).
  • Developing hospitals exhibit potential for ARPOB improvement as PPP business grows and operational efficiencies improve (Page 12).
