Manipal Hospitals has been the top-ranked healthcare provider in Bengaluru for over two decades and this addition is a reiteration of our commitment to meet the healthcare needs of the city and the region. Two greenfield hospitals are currently under construction and once they are complete in the next 24 months, our network of 12 hospitals with over 2,300 beds would be best placed to provide ease of access and comprehensive care to everyone across this city.”
Renuka Ramnath, Founder, Managing Director and CEO, Multiples said, “ We are pleased that we are handing over this marquee asset to an extremely worthy Manipal Hospital Group.”
Allegro Capital acted as financial advisors while PwC served as financial and tax diligence advisors and Trilegal as legal advisors for Manipal Hospitals on this deal.
