“Around 80% of YHTC’s operating beds are present in highly competitive market of Delhi-NCR region. Ramraja Hospital is operating at lower bed occupancy levels and is currently loss making. Thus we are cautiously optimistic on the medium-term performance of the company. At the higher price band, YHTC is demanding a P/E multiple of 39.2x (to its FY23 earning), which seems to be in-line to the peer average. Considering the above observations, we assign a “Subscribe with Caution” rating for the issue,” said Choice Broking.
