Healthcare
Healthcare has seen the highest investment of $755 million in 2012. It remains an attractive option for PE funds. In 2013, it is expected there will be a slew of investments in asset-light delivery models, including eye care, dental, day care surgery centres, mother and child hospitals, orthopaedic hospitals and diagnostics.
Though at a nascent stage, mobile healthcare which promises 24x7 access could also see a spurt in investment. The Medtech space, in which a few Indian firms are reaching the requisite scale of operations, will also evince PE interest. (Click on graphics)
