Artemis has signed definitive agreements with International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, to raise funds of Rs 3,300 million in the form of Compulsorily Convertible Debentures (CCDs).

Artemis operates a total of 713 beds predominantly in the Delhi NCR region, including a 541-bed quaternary care, super speciality hospital accredited by Joint Commission International and National Accreditation Board of Hospitals and Healthcare Providers and five hospitals under the Artemis Lite and Daffodils brands. Additionally, the Company runs seven centres under the Artemis Cardiac Care brand under a Joint Venture with Philips.
