Hospitals garner 50% share in healthcare FDI

India’s healthcare sector, particularly hospitals, has witnessed a surge in foreign direct investment, reaching $1.5 billion in FY24. This represents a significant increase, more than doubling hospitals’ share of FDI since FY21. Post-Covid, investor interest has shifted towards hospitals and diagnostics, leading to major buyouts and increased IPO activity, driven by market demand and growth in insurance coverage.
