About the company

Yatharth Hospital and Trauma Care Services is a multi-care hospital chain which was incorporated in 2008. It operates through its super specialty hospitals situated in Delhi NCR - Noida, Greater Noida, and Noida Extension, Uttar Pradesh.

Its Noida Extension hospital has 450 beds and is one of the largest hospitals in the area. It acquired a multi-specialty hospital in Orchha, Madhya Pradesh near Jhansi, which commenced operations in April 2022. The company's total bed capacity is now at 1405.

Reasonable valuation, say broking firms

“With healthy financials along with growth potentials in Northern India, we recommend ‘subscribe’ to the issue,” says a report by Nirmal Bang Securities. It believes that the issue is being offered at a reasonable valuation of 20.9x FY23 enterprise value/EBITDA as compared to its peers.

“Considering its consistent topline growth, stable margins, strategic acquisition, revival of medical tourism, and promising industry outlook, we assign a ‘subscribe’ rating on a medium to long term basis,” says a note by Geojit.

Canara Bank Securities however believes that there can’t be an apple-to-apple comparison with the hospital that’s concentrated in Delhi.

“Majorly, their revenue contributes 34% from government deals which can stretch the debtor days and margin as well. Hence, we recommend subscribing to the issue for listing gains,” it said.
