New Delhi, 31 Mar, 2015: Fortis Healthcare on Friday sold its Singapore hospital to Concord Medical Services (International) Pte Ltd for SGD 55 million (approx Rs 251 crore) in line with strategy to focus on the domestic market.

“The Board of Fortis Healthcare International Pte Ltd, a step down subsidiary of Fortis Healthcare Ltd based out of Singapore, has decided to disinvest 100 percent shareholding in Fortis Healthcare Singapore Pte Ltd which holds and operates Fortis Surgical Hospital to Concord Medical Services (International) Pte Ltd for a consideration of Singapore Dollar (SGD) 55 million,” Fortis said in a BSE filing.
Fortis Healthcare Executive Chairman Malvinder Singh and Executive Vice Chairman Shivinder Singh said: “Our decision to divest is in tune with our stated strategy to intensify our focus on our hospitals and diagnostics business in India.” The deal is expected to be completed on or around April 6, the filing added.
