Naman: Thank you. Good morning, everyone. On behalf of IIFL Capital Services Limited, I welcome
you all to Q1 FY27 Earnings Conference Call of Nephrocare Health Services Limited. We are
pleased to have with us the management team, represented by Mr. Vikram Vuppala, Chairman
and Managing Director; Mr. Kamal Shah, Co-Founder; Mr. Rohit Singh, Group CEO; and Mr.
Prashant Goenka, Group CFO of Nephro Health Services Limited.
We will have opening remarks from the management followed by a question-and-answer
session. Thank you, and over to you, Vikram.
Vikram Vuppala: Thank you. Very good morning, everyone. This is Vikram Vuppala, Founder, Chairman and
Managing Director. Thanks everyone for joining our first quarter of FY27 Earnings Conference
Call. Along with me, I have Kamal, the Co-Founder, we have Group CEO Rohit Singh, and our
Group CFO Prashant Goenka on this call.
We began FY27 on a steady note, with Q1 revenues growing more than 20% year-on-year. This
steady performance reflects the strength of the platform business we have built over the last 16
years, supported by disciplined execution, a resilient operating model, and the continued trust of
our patients, payers, and hospital partners.
The foundation of this platform was laid 16 years ago when we recognized that the growing
prevalence of diabetes and hypertension would inevitably lead to a significant increase in
chronic kidney disease.
As kidney disease progresses, majority of these patients eventually move to stage five where
you require dialysis or a transplant to survive. However, we also realized that delivering dialysis
at scale would require addressing three fundamental pillars: quality of care, accessibility, and
affordability. These principles continue to guide every decision we make at NephroPlus.
Let me start our core pillar, quality. Dialysis is fundamentally different from most other
healthcare services. It is not an elective procedure or a one-time procedure. It is a chronic life-
sustaining treatment. Every dialysis session enables a patient to live another few days. In
NephroPlus, we take quality as the cornerstone, and hence the quality team does not report into
the business team. They report to the Chief Medical Officer directly.

This enables our quality managers to do their clinical audit work without any pressures from the
P&L owners. Every clinic undergoes a thorough clinical audit every month from one of the
quality managers, and all of our clinics across the network are ranked on clinical outcomes every
month.
The second pillar is accessibility. While affordability and quality is supported through
reimbursement and focus on clinical care, access to quality dialysis remains a much larger
challenge. A patient typically requires dialysis three times every week and cannot be expected
to travel long distances for every session.
This is why we have consistently expanded beyond the metro cities in every country that we
operate in, bringing organized dialysis care closer to where the patients live. Just this last quarter,
we have launched NephroPlus in 17 new cities in India and 5 new cities in Philippines, which is
a very important metric that Kamal and I track in terms of improving access to quality dialysis
care.
The third pillar is affordability. Dialysis is a lifelong treatment and for most patients, the
financial burden can be onerous. Fortunately, dialysis is covered under various central and state
government health schemes in India, and in most other healthcare systems globally, it is fully
reimbursed by government in some form or manner.
From the very beginning, we built our business around this reimbursement-led model, working
closely with health insurance schemes, governments, and other payers to ensure that financial
constraints do not become a barrier to access to life-sustaining treatment.
Sincere focus on these three pillars, we have built one of the largest dialysis networks globally.
With NephroPlus today operating 550 clinics across 357 cities in 5 countries, making us India's
and also Asia's largest dialysis network by volume of treatments we do. Our international
operations continue to complement our India business, allowing us to leverage the operating
platform and capabilities we have built over several years.
Also, I'd like to mention that India is still in the early days of the dialysis market life cycle.
Majority of the patients who need dialysis still do not have access to dialysis, and also 80% of
the dialysis capacity is still in the unorganized market wherein hospitals run their own dialysis
operations. As hospitals evaluate their dialysis operations' financials closely, they will start
outsourcing dialysis operations to pure-play dialysis networks like NephroPlus.
Globally, hospitals do not run dialysis operations as you need two things to make decent margins
in dialysis. You need massive scale and you need 100% focus. You need massive scale to
generate margins in dialysis, and you need 100% focus to retain those margins. This shift from
unorganized to organized dialysis market in India will play out over the next several years giving
us good growth opportunity.
At a macro level, we have consistently communicated our growth is driven by three growth
levers. The first is increasing guest volumes across our existing clinics throug
