Leveraging its dominance in the B2B diagnostic business in India, Thyrocare’s new management has charted a roadmap to boost strong 15–17% growth in its base business of pathology. It has reframed contracts with ~7,400 of its franchisee partners (61% of pathology sales), setup a dedicated team to boost growth in the partnership model and shall invest ~INR 1.3bn over FY23–25 in its radiology business to turn around operations. To further strengthen its dominance in wellness tests, it has launched two new programs under ‘Jaanch’ and ‘Her Choice’, targeting fast-growing chronic ailments and unmet women healthcare needs. We raise our FY25 estimates by 4%, envisaging better traction in pathology and a strong margin expansion of 330 bps over FY23-25E.
