Commenting on the performance, GPT Healthcare Chairman, Dwarika Prasad Tantia, said, “We have always focused on strong operational and financial parameters, along with superior clinical outcomes and this is reflective in our results for the quarter as well as for the year ended March 31, 2024.
The existing four hospitals in Salt Lake, Agartala, Dum Dum and Howrah, continue to perform well and are improving on all financial and operational metrics with increasing occupancy. The ARPOB for FY24 was Rs 32,947 which is in line with our policy of serving the aspiring population of the society with higher disposable income in the middle to high income segment. The payer mix continues to be mostly cash and insurance leading to one of the highest Cashflow from Operations to EBITDA for the industry as well as both ROE and ROCE being in excess of 25% each and we expect to maintain the same, giving the shareholders superior return.
