As part of the transaction, Max India’s promoters have received an advance of Rs 361 crore (52.2 million dollars) from KKR in exchange for a 4.99 per cent stake in the merged entity. Max India’s promoters have used the funds for deleveraging purposes.

“Radiant-KKR are the best-suited partners to further the culture of clinical and service excellence that Max Healthcare has become known for. The merger and the future planned expansion will provide the scale that Max Healthcare needs for profitable growth at a time when healthcare margins are being tested,” he said in a statement.

Soi, Chairman Radiant Life Care and Max Healthcare, said: “We believe we have all the wherewithal to grow our business organically and inorganically during this challenging phase for the healthcare sector.

Our interests are also very aligned with our Prime Minister’s vision of strengthening brand India globally by focusing on the five T’s of tourism, tradition, technology, trade and talent.” Radiant has two iconic facilities in its portfolio: a 650-bed BLK Super Specialty Hospital in New Delhi and a 350-bed Nanavati Super Specialty Hospital in Mumbai.

Max Healthcare has 14 facilities in north India, offering services in over 30 medical disciplines with a base of over 3,000 doctors, 10,000 employees and over 22 lakh patients from over 80 countries.
