Park Medi World has secured a public-private partnership contract to develop a 550-bed hospital in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, with a planned investment of around ₹200 crore.
Contract highlights
The agreement outlines a construction period of two years, after which Park Medi World will operate the facility under a 45-year lease. The key terms of the contract are summarised below.
| Parameter | Details |
|---|---|
| Contract type | Public-private partnership (PPP) |
| Location | Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh |
| Hospital capacity | 550 beds |
| Planned investment | Around ₹200 crore |
| Construction timeline | Two years |
| Operation lease duration | 45 years |
Project scope
The contract positions Park Medi World as both the developer and long-term operator of the facility. The 45-year operation lease provides an extended operational mandate following the completion of construction. The planned investment of around ₹200 crore covers the development of the 550-bed hospital in Prayagraj.
Financial structure and government support
The project entails an investment of approximately ₹200 crore, funded through internal accruals. A significant component of this capital outlay is de-risked by state support: the Municipal Corporation of Prayagraj will reimburse ₹76.52 crore towards hospital construction. This concession covers approximately 38% of the total investment.
In consideration for the concession, Park Group will pay an annual fee of ₹18.10 crore, subject to an annual escalation of 3%.
Site details and expansion potential
The hospital will be developed on a 3.22-acre site allotted by the Municipal Corporation. The site is located directly behind Arail Ghat, approximately 3 kilometres from Sangam Ghat by road. The company holds an option to secure an additional 2.47 acres from the fifth year following the Commercial Operations Date (COD), providing headroom for future expansion.
Strategic context in Uttar Pradesh
The Prayagraj project forms part of Park Group’s broader strategy in Uttar Pradesh. Alongside its 360-bed hospital in Agra and an upcoming 400-bed facility in Gorakhpur, the company’s total capacity in the state will reach 1,260 beds upon completion. This positions the group as one of the leading private healthcare providers in the region.
Park Group currently operates 17 hospitals with a combined capacity of around 4,300 beds. With ongoing integrations and expansions, total group capacity is expected to reach approximately 6,300 beds.
