What changed

Policybazaar-backed PB Health plans a 150-hospital network across 50-plus cities, expanding from NCR through greenfield, brownfield and O&M models. It targets ₹10,000 crore of funding, has acquired Fitterfly, and aims for ₹500 crore FY27 run-rate revenue.

  • Progress of the four facilities targeted by March 2027, including bed count, location, approvals and commissioning dates.
