Healthcare Global Enterprises (HCG) inaugurated its expanded HCG Aastha Cancer Centre in Ahmedabad on April 19, 2025, in the presence of Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel. The new facility, billed as Gujarat's largest private comprehensive cancer centre, has a 217-bed capacity, a 140% increase from its previous strength, including 23 surgical ICU beds, 10 medical ICU beds, 6 Bone Marrow Transplant units, and specialised daycare and post-operative beds. HCG expects the expansion to drive a 30–40% rise in patient footfall, translating to over 55,000 outpatient visits and 9,000 inpatient admissions annually. The centre is staffed by more than 100 in-house doctors and features advanced technology such as robotic surgery, Gujarat's first Tomo Therapy unit, and scalp cooling technology for chemotherapy patients. Senior leadership including Executive Chairman Dr. B.S. Ajaikumar and CEO Raj Gore framed the launch as a strategic milestone in HCG's mission to make advanced, precision-led oncology care accessible across India.
The capacity expansion strengthens HCG's market position in Gujarat's growing oncology segment and could support higher revenues through increased patient volumes, though near-term stock impact is likely limited as this is an operational milestone rather than a financial disclosure.
