Fortis Healthcare informed the exchanges that the composite scheme of arrangement among its three wholly-owned subsidiaries — International Hospital Limited (IHL), Fortis Hospitals Limited (FHsL), and Fortis Hospotel Limited (FHTL) — has been approved by NCLT New Delhi (May 9, 2025) and NCLT Chandigarh (July 30, 2025). The appointed date for the scheme is April 1, 2023, and it will become effective once the certified copy of the NCLT Chandigarh order is filed with the Registrar of Companies. The rationale is to simplify Fortis's complex legacy group structure, cut administrative and financial inefficiencies, and foster commercial expediency. Share exchange ratios are set: IHL will issue 191 equity shares (₹100 each) for every 237 CCPS (₹10 each) held in FHsL, and FHTL will issue 713 equity shares (₹10 each) for every 329 equity shares (₹10 each) held in FHsL.
This is an internal restructuring of wholly-owned subsidiaries and will not change Fortis Healthcare's shareholding pattern, so there is no direct dilution or value transfer for listed shareholders. The simplification could reduce duplication and costs over time, but near-term stock impact is likely neutral.
