Rainbow Children's Medicare Limited (RCML) has announced the acquisition of a majority stake in Prashanthi Medicare Private Limited, a reputed 100-bed NABH-accredited hospital in Warangal, Telangana. The acquisition marks a strategic expansion into tier-II cities and enhances RCML's presence in southern India.
Established in 2015 by Dr. Prasanthi Macha, Prashanthi Hospital is recognized for excellence in obstetrics, gynecology, neonatology, pediatrics, and minimally invasive surgery. The hospital has built a strong regional reputation and continues to serve as a trusted destination for maternal and child healthcare in Warangal, Telangana's second-largest district.
With this acquisition, RCML's total bed capacity increases to 2,035 across 20 hospitals in seven cities. The transaction, valued at approximately ₹32.60 crore (subject to working capital adjustments), is based on 9x estimated FY25 adjusted EBITDA and will be funded through internal accruals and cash reserves. RCML will acquire a 76% equity stake and 100% of the Non-convertible Redeemable Preference Shares (NCRPS), while Dr. Macha and associates will retain a 24% minority stake.
Post-acquisition, the facility will operate under a dual brand: Rainbow Children's Hospital for pediatric services and Prashanthi with BirthRight for women's health services. The integration will support RCML's hub-and-spoke model, ensuring efficient referrals and clinical alignment with its Hyderabad tertiary care hub.

This latest addition brings the total order value for this variation to approximately ₹430.53 crore.

Kraken Launches Crypto's Attempt at a Venmo-Killer
Kraken's rising from the decentralized deep to capsize a big ship: traditional finance. The crypto platform launched a peer-to-peer payments app yesterday that lets users instantly send 300+ crypto tokens, stablecoins and fiat currencies to friends and family in more than 100 countries. Anyone who has had to split a check with new hostel friends knows that rivals Venmo and Zelle only support payments between US users. Kraken's app, called Krak, also doesn't charge fees for cross-border payments or transfers from one currency to another, setting it apart from PayPal. Kraken's app is meant to serve as an entry point to digital assets for the crypto-cautious, with rewards of up to 10% on Krak account balances to entice new users. Krak is also part of Kraken's push into traditional finance to diversify revenue ahead of a planned IPO. READ ALSO: Dwindling IPOs Reward Investors With Return Bonanza and After Reclaiming 'World's Most Valuable Company' Crown, Nvidia Gilds the Tiara Those are the words of Kraken exec Mark Greenberg as Kraken and other crypto companies try to put their blockchain-backed spins on traditional finance: Kraken debuted tokens that represent US equities for non-US users, letting them trade representations of stocks like Nvidia and Tesla over the blockchain. It also bought futures-trading platform NinjaTrader this spring for $1.5 billion. Crypto exchange Coinbase teamed up with Shopify to launch a payments platform (creatively named Coinbase Payments) that lets merchants accept payments using the stablecoin USDC. The issuer of USDC, Circle, also introduced a cross-border payments network this spring. At the same time, TradFi isn't going down without a fight: JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup and Wells Fargo are reportedly exploring the creation of a joint stablecoin, and brokerages like Morgan Stanley and Charles Schwab are working on adding crypto trading. Hot Coin Summer: The line between traditional and digital finance has grown blurry in the Trump era as regulatory actions against crypto companies have eased. In March, the SEC dropped a lawsuit accusing Kraken of operating an unregistered securities exchange, following the agency's abandonment of a similar suit against rival Coinbase. Both sides of the finance world have read the new room and aren't missing the opportunity to try to eat each other's lunch. This post first appeared on The Daily Upside.
