Shah in 1994 in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. This first hospital was a small six-bed single speciality unit which offered total knee replacement surgery.

Shalby Limited was incorporated in 2004.

The hospitals provide in-patient and out-patient service. In 2007, the Shalby hospital became a multispeciality hospital with 200-beds and now in 2017, the chain of Shalby Hospitals holds a bed capacity of over 2000 beds. The hospital offers care in over 40 medical disciplines such as:

  • Dialysis and kidney transplant,
  • Pediatric orthopaedics,
  • Plastic surgery etc.

The Shalby hospital is certified by National Accreditation Board for Hospitals & Healthcare Providers (NABH). In 2011, the hospital-acquired 55% stake in Vrundavan hospital in Goa and in 2012, it acquired Krishna Hospital for ₹75 crore. After that, it has become the biggest private corporate hospital in Ahmedabad.

In 2013, Dr Shah claimed that the Ahmedabad hospital completes an average 30 joint replacement surgeries daily. Furthermore, Dr Vikram Shah invented ZERO Technique which reduced the average surgical time from 1 hour to 20 minutes.

The hospital has won several awards and claimed that by late 2016 they have performed more than 85,000 joint replacement surgeries in total.

Shalby Hospitals are famous for their orthopaedics services. The hospital has 15% market share of all joint replacement surgeries conducted by the private hospitals in India which seems quite good for a new company. The company is positioned nicely in the market to take the benefit of the growth in future.

The Shalby Limited adopted the strategy to stay away from the metropolitan market and focused on the Tier – I and Tier – II cities.

The strategy gives an advantage of getting quality manpower at low cost which is a great advantage in the long run. Most of the Shalby Hospitals are present in the western and central India but they have the plans to expand to new geographies.

Our Recommendation on Shalby Hospital (Buy/Avoid)

Though the company is owned by a family, however, it is managed professionally. The financials of the company are good and showing a positive growth for years. Earlier the hospitals were focused on the joint replacement surgeries but now they have diversified their areas of operation and treating more than 40 medical conditions. This is a big positive for the company.  

The Price/Earnings Ratio of the company is around 34.4 and is very high in comparison to Fortis Healthcare’s 14.9. The margins of Shalby Limited are 19% compared to Narayana Hrudayalaya’s 12% and Apollo Hospitals 21%.

From past one year, four healthcare service providers tapped the primary market to raise funds which includes Thyrocare Technologies Ltd, Eris Lifesciences Ltd, HealthCare Global Enterprises Ltd, and Narayana Hrudayalaya Ltd.

These companies have collectively raised ₹4,116 crore from the primary market.

  • the listing price of Eris Lifesciences Ltd. was ₹600 and now it is trading on ₹796,
  • the listing price of Thyrocare Technologies Ltd was ₹420 and its shares are currently trading at ₹663,
  • the listing price of HealthCare Global was ₹205 and the current price is ₹299,
  • the listing price of Narayana Hrudayalaya Ltd. was ₹245 and the share of the company are currently trading at ₹294.

So there is a positive growth in the share price of all these healthcare service providers. This makes a positive outlook for the Shalby Hospitals.  

Shalby Limited is an experienced player in the healthcare industry and showing a handsome growth from years. Some of the key strengths of Shalby Hospitals include:

  • Leadership in orthopaedics and other specialities
  • Professionally managed company
  • Qualified and experienced management team
  • Integrated and scalable business model
  • Good track record of growth and financial performance

One thing which seems quite negative is that the company is significantly dependent on the services of its promoter Dr Vikram Shah and a disruption in his services can adversely affect the company.

Healthcare is an evergreen industry though there is not a tremendous growth the healthcare companies have the potential to grow over the years. According to our opinion, Shalby Limited may not have a high growth in short-term but the long-term future of the company looking quite positive.

So investors should consider the company for a long-term investment purpose.
