The Dalmia Group, which has diverse business interests such as textiles and tobacco as well as healthcare, has now forayed into the diagnostics space with the launch of Dalmia Medicare on Wednesday. The company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dalmia Biz, is entering the market with 32 laboratories that will offer pathology as well as radiology services, it said.

“Dalmia Biz aims to organise the unorganised sectors in the country such as education, retail, finance, travel & tourism, real estate and hospitality amongst many others through upcoming subsidiaries of the company,” it said in a statement.

“The Indian healthcare industry is growing at an exponential rate but there is still healthcare deficit in the country. With the advent of technology, the new age consumer has numerous expectations from healthcare services. At the same time, there are consumers who still don’t have access to quality healthcare. Dalmia Medicare is well equipped to cater to the needs of all kinds of consumers ensuring both accessibility and quality” said Sanjay Dalmia, Chairman of the Dalmia Group.

He added that the company aims to expand across the country in two years.

He further said Dalmia Biz is offering profit sharing to the employees of Dalmia Medicare. “Once we are listed, hopefully in three-four years, we will be offering stock options to every employee from top to bottom,” he said.
