Healthcare has become one of India’s largest sectors - both in terms of revenue and employment. Healthcare comprises hospitals, medical devices, clinical trials, and medical equipment, etc. The Indian healthcare sector is growing at a brisk pace due to its strengthening coverage, services, and increasing expenditure by public as well private players. The Healthcare industry is always in need of funds for various purposes. It can be either for working capital needs to meet day to day operational expenses or for purchase of medical equipment, up-gradation of medical equipment or construction /purchase of new premises for hospital /clinic, etc.
