Bengaluru-based hospital chain Manipal Health Enterprises lists on BSE and NSE on 5 August 2026. Its ₹8,000 crore fresh issue will primarily reduce subsidiary debt and fund a Sahyadri Hospitals minority-stake acquisition; analysts expect a flat-to-limited-gain debut.

Why this matters

The listing follows Manipal Health's ₹4,167 crore anchor raise and the opening of its ₹9,275 crore IPO, both focused on debt reduction and a Sahyadri Hospitals stake acquisition.
