About the Company

ABH Healthcare Limited operates a 150-bed multi-specialty tertiary care hospital under the "Anil Baghi Hospital" brand in Ferozepur, Punjab. Founded in 2021, the company acquired the business of M/s. Anil Baghi Hospital in 2022. It offers services across 25 medical specialties, including cardiac sciences and neurology, led by U.S.-trained doctors.

Financial Highlights

The company has shown consistent growth in revenue and profit over the last three fiscal years.

  • Funding working capital requirements: ₹5.00 crores
  • Funding inorganic growth through unidentified acquisitions and general corporate purposes

Risk Factors

  • Limited operating history as a company since incorporation in March 2021.
  • Geographic revenue concentration risk with 100% revenue from its Ferozepur location.
  • High debt-to-equity ratio of 3.20 in Fiscal 2026.

What's Next

Allotment is expected on August 28, 2026. The shares will list on NSE and BSE on September 1, 2026. The basis of allotment will be determined by the Registrar to the Issue.

Will the strong QIB subscription of 3.45x be sufficient to offset the weak retail and HNI participation, or will the IPO likely face an oversubscription shortfall by the closing date?

How might the company's plan to use IPO proceeds for 'unidentified acquisitions' impact its valuation stability given its current high debt-to-equity ratio of 3.20?

What is the potential upside for ABH Healthcare's stock price post-listing if the broader healthcare sector in Tier 3 cities continues to attract institutional capital?
