This growth has been driven by strong operational performance across all three hospitals, reflected in higher occupancy rates and increased ARPOB.

In Q2FY25, we added 22 beds at our Pune hospital and are in the process of adding 75 new beds at our Indore hospital, which is expected to be operational by Q4FY25.

We are focused on expanding the Jupiter brand, enhancing management professionalism, and increasing our footprint. With this regards, the construction of our Dombivli hospital is progressing on schedule. For our Pune hospitals, we are in the advanced stages of obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals. With the addition of these two new facilities, our total bed capacity will increase to around 2,200 beds, and we are currently identifying another location to raise our total capacity to approximately 2,500 beds.'
