Apollo Hospitals Enterprise Ltd.

Maldivian Airlines has reportedly inked pact with Apollo Hospitals Enterprise to give discounts to each others’ clients. For example, Apollo Hospitals will give a discount on its service charges for those who fly the airline, and the airline will give similar discounts to the hospital’s patients on the airfare.

Indian healthcare industry attracts the bulk of Maldivian tourists every year. Every day, at least 200 Maldivians visit India, and a big chunk of them go there for medical care. Further, the company also has pointed that the number can be much more provided the Indian Government scraps the mandatory 60-day waiting period between every two visits.

Apollo Hospitals Enterprise has reported 49.28% rise in its net profit at Rs 83.24 crore for second ended September 30, 2012 as compared to Rs 55.76 crore for the same quarter in the previous year. Total income of the company has increased by 20.47% at Rs 850.69 crore for quarter under review as compared to Rs 706.13 crore for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.
