by 19.6% year-on-year to H 45,089 million as compared to
H 37,713 million in FY 2024-25. The growth was driven by
higher patient volumes, increased occupied bed days

ESOP expense stood at H 10,560 million in FY 2025¬
26, registering a growth of 10.4% over H 9,562 million
reported in FY 2024-25. EBITDA margin stood at 23.4%
as compared to 25.4% in the previous year, reflecting
the impact of start-up costs associated with the newly
commissioned Noida hospital. Excluding Noida, EBITDA
increased by 18.6% year-on-year to H 11,343 million,

with EBITDA margins of 25.7%. Profit After Tax (“PAT”)

in July 2025, complementing its existing 200-bed

facility and enhancing its capacity to serve the growing
healthcare needs of the region.

The developing hospitals comprising Lucknow, Patna
and Noida continued to scale up during the year.
Revenue from developing hospitals stood at H 15,036
million, registering a growth of 37.5% year-on-year.

scale-up of Lucknow and Patna hospitals and the
commencement of operations at Medanta Noida
in September 2025. EBITDA stood at H 3,663 million,
registering a growth of 11.3% year-on-year, reflecting the
expected drag from early-stage start-up losses of the
Noida hospital.

During the year, 500 beds were added across the

overall bed capacity. This includes the addition of 382
beds at Medanta Noida, which commenced operations

and primary care network through 8 clinics (including
2 radiology centers) across 5 cities and more than 90
neighborhood primary care clinics across Gurugram,
Delhi and Lucknow. In parallel, the Company continued
to expand its home care services, with a focus on
post-acute bundled care for oncology and transplant
patients. Key service offerings include ICU-at-home,
nursing and clinical care, medical equipment rental
and sleep studies, enabling patients to access quality
healthcare services in the comfort of their homes.

During the year, the Company strengthened its future
growth pipeline by completing the acquisition of land
for the proposed 400 bed multi-specialty hospital in
Guwahati, Assam. Subsequently, following the revision
in National Building Code (NBC) norms, the planned
capacity of the project was enhanced from 400 beds
to 650 beds. Further, the Board approved a 400-bed
hospital project in Varanasi under a build-to-suit
and lease arrangement. Development activities also
progressed across the Company’s projects in Mumbai,
South Delhi and Pitampura (Delhi).

In May 2026, the Company entered into a Business
Transfer Agreement for the acquisition of an
approximately 80-bed cancer hospital in Indore, which
will further strengthen its oncology capabilities and
complement its existing 175-bed hospital in the city.

Collectively, expansion initiatives are expected to add

addition of 2,700 beds over the next three to four years.
