Healthcare

Overview

The healthcare sector is increasingly achieving positive revenues globally, helped by buoyant growth in emerging markets. India is at the hub of its growth, the country emerging as a leader in healthcare innovation, healthcare start-ups, and research.

Healthcare spending has risen with a rise in awareness levels and easier accessibility to quality healthcare. India is now widely being recognized as a destination for world-class healthcare.

Affordability is a key factor that has been spurring the growth of the Indian healthcare sector. Indian drugs are available at an affordable price when compared to markets globally. The country is now one of the hubs for medical tourism with world-class hospitals and facilities available at a fraction of the international cost.
