The city’s healthcare sector is set for a major boost as Premji Invest, backed by Wipro chairman Azim Premji, has taken a stake in NewEra Hospitals and announced plans to launch three new hospitals. This expansion will increase the group’s total capacity from 350 beds to 800 beds.
Currently, NewEra Hospitals operates two facilities in Nagpur and one in Navi Mumbai. The upcoming hospitals will add 450 beds, strengthening access to advanced, quaternary care services in the region.
Prakash Chellam, Partner and Head of Healthcare & Life Sciences at Premji Invest, said Nagpur still needs higher bed capacity and better hospital infrastructure, and the investment aims to address this gap.
Focus on advanced patient care
Dr Anand Sancheti, Managing Director of NewEra Hospitals, said quality healthcare should not be limited to big metro cities and that the new investment will help deliver advanced patient care locally.
Co-founder Dr Nilesh Agarwal said the goal is to build a trusted institution that consistently meets patient expectations. Another co-founder, Dr Nidhish Mishra, added that the partnership will accelerate the hospital group’s growth and development.
