Delhi-based private hospital chain Max Healthcare has formally inaugurated its 300-bed super speciality hospital in Dwarka. In a conversation with CNBC-TV18, Abhay Soi, Chairman and Managing Director of Max Healthcare, said that as the hospital enters its 25th year, the company will commission four new facilities in 2025-26 (FY26) to mark the milestone. The company added 30% capacity last year, mainly through acquisitions.
This year, it plans to expand capacity by another 30%, reaching 5,100 beds. “The first that was inaugurated yesterday, was the Max Dwarka hospital. We look forward to commissioning three more, which are on the way.
One will be at Max Saket, located in the heart of our hub in Delhi. Another will be in Nanavati, Mumbai, where we are expanding later in the year, as well as one in Mohali, Punjab,” Soi added. Soi, said the focus over the next five years is on building high-quality healthcare infrastructure to meet growing demand.
Max Healthcare aims to invest ₹6,500 crore to add around 3,000 more beds by the end of 2028, taking the total to nearly 8,000. It is reinvesting the capital it generates to build these much-needed healthcare facilities across the country. The company will also focus on inorganic growth.
