Ameera Shah, promoter and managing director, Metropolis Healthcare, said: I am extremely pleased to share that we have recorded highest ever quarterly revenue (excl. covid PCR & covid allied tests) with 16% growth on year-on-year basis.
With accelerated shift from the unorganised to the organised sector coupled with increased health awareness amongst customers and a trusted scientific image with medical fraternity, we expect the revenues growth to improve and margins to sustain at the pre-covid levels.
