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.
